Need some sautéed veggie help!

Garlic & grated ginger are yummy.

I like garlic and olive and some salt and pepper for sauteed veggies...and balsamic vinegar. I have a little olive oil shop near me where I like to buy the flavored balsamic vinegars. If you like green beans, I like to do them with some olive oil and sun-dried tomatoes. I also like brussel sprouts with fig balsamic vinegar and frozen peaches. Hope that gives you some ideas.

A little garlic salt or parmesan cheese is great! Mrs. Dash is a good option too. I also like to add greek seasoning or even Old Bay seasoning.

Last night I had green beans with garlic, olive oil, salt, and red pepper flakes. It's fantastic. My go-to spices are typically garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper (although I typically roast my veggies).

I spray the pan and sauté without any spices, I enjoy it just like that.

I just made some Piri Piri Mushrooms they were smoky in flavor. Delicious!

onion powder, garlic powder, pepper,

1- Braggs Aminos (like soy sauce but without the wheat) and Frank's Chili & Lime Hot sauce.
2- I also vote for Chinese 5 spice powder which even works well if you add shrimp or prawns to the dish.
3- Or for a totally different flavour Epicure Spices 'Cheese, Chives, & Bacon Dip Mix', or
4- their Sansel Chili & Lime seasoning.
5- Try dryfrying cumin seeds first then do veggies and add fresh cilantro leaves at the very end when you take it off the heat.

Curry powder is good if you're looking for something different. Also, grilling veggies takes them to a whole new level.

Fermented black beans are unbelievable - you mix it with some garlic, ginger, oyster sauce, some sake and soy sauce - you can stir fry anything with it, and it is extremely tasty!

I like to do thai style and add the following: coconut oil, fresh ginger, fresh jalapeno, sambal oelek, lime juice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, white pepper, sesame oil.

Anyone have some ideas on how to spice up my veggies? Mostly peppers, onions and mushrooms is what I need help with, i eat a lot of that combination. I'm trying to cut carbs so veggies have to become my best friend;) thanks MFP ppl!

You can cook the peppers with onions and tomato sause and garlic in the oven and eat them with whole grain bread or make stuffed bell peppers with rice or chickpease , you can also make salads with cucumbers,tomatoes,bell peppers, yellow corn and quinoa.

To that veggie mix I often add anything Mediterranean or Provencal style. Since I live in Mexico, where those mixes are not readily available I make my own using:
3 tablespoons dried rosemary
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1⁄2 teaspoon salt ( real sea salt, not table salt )

A more Greek seasoning:
1½ tablespoons dried oregano
1½ teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1½ tablespoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper (note: freshly ground black pepper is less volume than non-freshly ground, if using non-freshly ground use half the amount)
2 teaspoons beef or vegetable bouillon powder
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1½ tablespoons sweet or spicy paprika powder ( but don't overdo the heat...it's not greek )
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions
Combine all the spices and store in a jar. I often double the amounts and grind half to a powder in a spice or coffee grinder to use on chicken an d fish, or a bit in hummus or on Falafel....or my favorite; on baked or steamed potatoes.
This counts for both mixes

Both mixes are obviously for much more than just one meal.....:o).

I often eat this particular vegetable mix with either of the two seasonings with two poached eggs alone , or on the days when I eat them accompanied by rice, pasta, pearl barley or even more often I eat this dish with freshly made corn tortillas, especially if I add tomatoes in the Israeli Shakshuka style.

I like to have 3 scrambled egg whites with my veggies and no-salt seasoning. It's like a mini-meal. Lots of good suggestions here for spicing it up! I would also add that fresh cilantro (or coriander depending on where you are) makes an easy flavor addition as well. I just keep some in a jar of water and snip into my food all the time.
