Instructions
 

Gather Your Ingredients

  • Start by collecting all the necessary ingredients. This includes fresh produce, protein alternatives, and your favorite seasoning blends. Having everything ready will streamline your cooking process.

Prep the Vegetables

  • Chop your vegetables into bite-sized pieces. For instance, if you’re using bell peppers, zucchini, or carrots, aim for uniform sizes. This ensures even cooking. Additionally, wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt.

Cook the Protein

  • In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add your chosen protein alternative, such as tofu or chickpeas. Cook until golden brown, which usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Add the Vegetables

  • Once the protein is cooked, it’s time to add your prepped vegetables. Stir them in and cook for another 5-10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully. Remember, you want the veggies to be tender but still crisp.

Season to Taste

  • Now comes the fun part! Sprinkle in your favorite herbs and spices. For example, garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning work wonders. Taste as you go, adjusting the seasoning to your preference.

Incorporate Grains

  • If you’re serving your xfor Family Meals with grains, like rice or quinoa, add them now. Mix everything together gently. This step not only adds heartiness but also makes the dish more filling.

Simmer and Serve

  • Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes, letting the flavors deepen. Once done, remove from heat and serve immediately. You can garnish with fresh herbs for an extra pop of color and flavor.
