Semi-Sweet Vegetables in Sauce
"This topping/side dish is basically sautéed veggies with a creamy sauce, nuts and raisins. Great on rice, with meat, or just by themselves for a snack. I use the kind of oil that is sold at the little fruit stands. Its a Russian Sunflower oil with Vitamin E not extracted. It gives the best flavors. You can substitute with olive or regular vegetable oil."
