I need variety in my consumption of vegetables and sometimes I want to eat other vegetables than having a salad. The following recipe is easy to make and the vegetables can vary depending on what you have in the fridge. I centred the recipe around carrots and added vegetables that would compliment the carrots.
Vegetables cooking in the frying pan. |
Leftover vegetables added to a container to be eaten the following day for lunch. |
INGREDIENTS:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 clove of garlic, minced
2 large carrots, chopped or julienned
1 red pepper, chopped
1/2 cup of sliced mushrooms
handful of fresh spinach
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
In a non-stick frying pan, heat the olive oil on medium heat. Add the garlic and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add all of the vegetables except for the spinach and saute on medium low heat until the vegetables are soft. This should take about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and continue cooking until the spinach wilts. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serves 2 to 3. To add more flavour, you can add some seasoned rice vinegar or sweet chili sauce to the vegetables after you have placed it on your plate.
Nice and simple, I like it!
