Delicious Vegetables!

I so wish I had taken a picture of these gorgeous vegetables before chopping and cooking!

I was looking in my refrigerator, knowing I wanted to gently cook a big pot of vegetables for my dog Oliver, and also to go with different meats for dinner for myself.

So with that in mind I kept raw garlic and onion out of the pot, which are toxic for dogs. With so many beauties clamoring for my attention! I settled on these this time.

1# green cabbage

4 med. carrots

2 med. zucchini

1/2 orange bell pepper

2 big skinny sweet red peppers

Wash then rough chop everything into a 4qt. pot where you've melted 2T coconut oil. Sauté everything until it sizzles a while then add 1c of water. Also add seasonings. 

Today I used 2T Better Than Bouillon - vegetable, a good shake of my ground black+cayenne pepper blend, 1t or so of curry powder and a small shake of Lowry's Garlic Salt, not enough to cause any problems for Oliver. You could also just use sea salt.

Bring that back to a low boil, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes. Just long enough to release all the amazing flavors, yet not cook it all into a mushy mass. If you'd like, add some chopped nuts for protein to serve as a vegetarian main dish. The vegetables were cooked to a perfect 'crisp-tender!' Mmmm, SO good! . .Lin
