Veggie Tri-medly
Source: www.mariabehealthy.com
Makes: 9 servings
Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 10-12 mins
Ingredients
1 16 oz bag frozen cauliflower
1 16 oz bag frozen broccoli
1 16 oz bag frozen green beans
1 1/2 cups water
Notes / Directions
Put all three veggies in a large frying pan. Add water and bring to a boil. Lower to medium heat. Put lid on pan and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
Before cooking you can add all kinds of seasonings and condiments to top the veggies.
I.e. Pesto, hummus, spice blends , herb blends, prepared mustard, dried onions,
liquid aminos that taste like soy sauce, butter, Himalayan salt , Adobo seasoning etc.
My favorites are adding mustard to the cauliflower, adobo and dried onions to the beans and spraying liquid aminos on the broccoli.
