Peas and Squash

So you want to eat more veggies now, do ya?

Well I have a solution....or at least another way to add them to your diet!

Simple, yet delicious idea and I really like the combo

The colors! Love em'!

Ok, so I know it sounds like something your mom had to force feed you when you were a kid, but come on! We are adults now (or at least we are trying to act like it)

Our taste buds have expanded past the chicken fingers and PB&J sandwich horizon!

Onward now! To the veggies!

Simple Peas and Squash Bowl:

8oz (1 cup) frozen peas

1/2 yellow squash, thinly sliced

1 tbsp oil (I used safflower)

red pepper flakes

turmeric

black pepper

sea salt

garlic powder

cooking spray (I use Spectrum's Coconut Oil Spray) I found it at Ralph's and I use it ALL the time

1. Cook frozen peas according to bag

2. While the peas are cooking take the sliced squash and toss into a bowl with the oil and seasoning and coat evenly

3. In medium skillet, spray with cooking spray, lay the squash down and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping until both sides are cooked and the squash becomes soft.

                                           

4. After both the peas and squash are done, toss them both together and enjoy!
