  1. Quick and easy and full of flavor. Made just as written. Another keeper.
     
  2. This is very good. I particularly liked browning the vegetables, it seemed to draw more flavor out of the vegetables. Next time I'll start the veggies with just the cauliflower and then add the broccoli after a couple of minutes because I thought my broccoli was overdone. Thanks for sharing! Made for PRMR tag.

  5. This was fast and fabulous! I steamed by veggies in the microwave to make it even easier. I love lemon, which went really well with the garlic. I served this as a side dish with my Recipe #440547, which it complemented nicely. I will be making this often. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Tag Game.
