Summer Veggie Medley

Here's a super refreshing great summer dish to try:

Summer Veggie Medley 

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 tablespoons trans-fat-free butter spread
  • 6 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thin ribbons
  • Corn kernels from 3 cobs, or 2 1/4 cups thawed frozen corn
  • 3/4 lb green beans, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon white truffle oil
  • 1/4 cup packed Italian parsley, chopped

PREPARATION

  1. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat; melt butter spread. Add vegetables; cover; reduce heat to low; cook until veggies are light brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper; stir; cover and cook until beans are tender, 2 minutes. Drizzle juice and oil on top; sprinkle with parsley; divide among 6 plates.
    *It's really easy to add in any of your favorite veggies, or work with whatever's in season. Maybe consider adding some chili's!
