Sometimes we have an abundance of garden veggies in the summer from our garden and we get tired of the same ole recipes.. Here is one our family enjoys and I know yours will too.. it is very tasty and wonderful served with fish.. today we had ours with Salmon Fillets

Sauteed Garden Veggies

Ingredients:

1 med zuchinni

1 med yellow squash

1 large cucumber

1 large clove minced fresh garlic

1 jar mushrooms drained

2 stalks celery chopped

1 large onion chunked

1-2 cups frozen broccoli

1 green bell pepper cut in strips

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Salted Butter

Romano Cheese Grated

Parmesan Cheese Grated

Pepper

Salt

 

Start out with extra virgin olive oil , chopped celery and butter….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

then add the rest of your veggies (zucchini, onion, broccoli, squash, green bell pepper and minced  garlic)

 

 

 

 

 

add in a little more olive oil over top and toss veggies in pan

..

 

 

 

 

 

add in your drained jar of sliced mushrooms

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

salt and pepper well and stir over med high heat…

 

 

 

 

 

turn it down after cooking a few minutes and put lid on and let it cook down.. taking lid off occasionally to stir…

 

 

 

 

 

it will cook a while before it is to the point you need it.,. It will begin to make a juice in the bottom of the veggies.. and the veggies will begin to be tender to bite,,  at this point you add your parmesan cheese

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and  now your romano cheese and stir

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

… put on your spaghetti noodles in a separate pot.. you will add the Spaghetti with butter sauce to this dish when done.. so let this just hang out on simmer while you finish your pasta..
