Notes

Chop your veggies small for quicker cooking time and more flavor infusion. Use fresh herbs if you can; they elevate the taste to superhero levels! If you like a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy twist. Adjust the seasoning to your liking, and feel free to experiment with other veggies like zucchini or kale.
