  • What about veggies? Take everything that you have (peppers, mushrooms, zuccini, tomatoes, broccoli, onion, garlic, etc, etc). It does not metter what you have. Cut in a big pices. Put to the oven dish. Salt, pepper, lemon juce. I put rings of lemon on the top. 25 minutes on 350F, no cover. You can spring olive oil iat the top f you can afford it fro calories point of view.

    1 of our favs in this house is broccoli.
    WE buy huge bags of frozen broccoli.
    Completely fill a microwave-safe bowl w frozen broccoli and cover in saran wrap. microwave for 5-10 mins based on your microwave and desired level of crispness,
    depending on what we are having i will top it w either spray butter, teriyaki, or soy sauce.

    fast, convenient, low cal, whole family loves it = WIN

    frozen green beans boiled in beef broth for 10 mins is another fav
