Lets Get Started!!
Finely chopped up all my veggies!! Saute on medium low heat. Carrots, Peppers, Onions, Mushrooms in avocado oil till slightly tender!
These are going to replace the go to ketchup that I usually add!
I made a simple sauce for the top of 1/2 Tomato Sauce, a little salt and 1 tbsp honey. Mix and spread before cooking. You can add more after as well
Finished product that I serve with Mashed Potatoes (half sweet & half white) and a leaf salad! Simple and nutritious.
