- 1 cup finely chopped carrots
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic

Finely chop all the veggies. For the broccoil and cauliflower, it's easiest to use a food processor.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat. Add carrots and onion and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Add peppers and garlic, continuing to cook and stir for another 1-2 minutes.
Add the broccoli and cauliflower and cook for 2 minutes, or until all the veggies have softened slightly but are not mushy.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Coconut aminos and/or nutritional yeast can also be added for additional flavor.
