Liz's Veg Delight

This is my go to meal when I really don't know what to eat... I think it's healthy and yummy...I invite you to try.

ü  2 mid-sized carrots
ü  2 tablespoons olive oil
ü  1 mid- sized egg-plant (aubergines)
ü  ½ inch fresh ginger root (minced)
ü  1 green bell pepper (cut in to strips)
ü  1 red bell pepper (cut in to strips)
ü  1 yellow bell pepper (cut in to strips)
ü  1 onion (sliced)
ü  Garlic powder (to taste) [alternatively, use fresh garlic)
ü  Black pepper (to taste)
ü  Salt (to taste)

What to do
1.   Cut the carrots diagonally into 1 inch pieces, rinse and place in a covered bowl with 1 serving spoon of water. Microwave to soften the carrots (the time will depend on your microwave setting – it takes me about 4 minutes)

2.   Heat the oil in a saucepan, then sauté the egg-plant (aubergine), until it becomes translucent

3.   Stirring constantly, add the ginger, then the sliced peppers

[If you need to add some more olive oil, this is a good time to do so – just make sure your veg don’t overcook or burn – they should be nicely moist]

4.   Then add your tender carrots and onions

5.   Season with salt and black pepper

6.   Serve hot with cous cous, rice or eat as a full veggie meal!
