This recipe is my Go-To for an easy and healthy dish that my entire family loves! I often serve it over Rice, Quinoa or a Baked Potato (Sweet or White) for a warm and hearty meal. This medley of vegetables is very versatile and pairs well with Seafood, Chicken, Turkey, Pork, Beef...just about anything ;) I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Note: This recipe was adapted from the South Beach Diet and has been thoroughly enjoyed by my family for almost 20 years :)
