INGREDIENTS
1 large onion, sliced
2-6 cloves garlic, minced
1-3 large carrots, diced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium potato, cubed
1-1/2 cups cauliflower florets, sliced

1 cup peas
3 tbsp Braggs or soy sauce

3. Stir in the peas and Braggs (or soy sauce), and cook uncovered on medium-high heat stirring constantly until the liquid has thickened.
2. Serve over rice or noodles.

Note: you can use whatever vegetables you have kicking around (e.g., spinach, kale, green onions).
