3379.0. "Vegetable Melange" by LUNER::DREYER () Tue Dec 17 1991 09:03

I've searched high and low throughout this file, and can't seem to find the
kind of vegetable recipe I'm looking for.  I need some sort of melange for
Christmas that I will be bringing, so I must be able to prepare it in advance
and heat it in either an oven or microwave.
There will be two diabetics eating it, so it can't be oily or starchy.  I would
like it to be only veggies.  Any great "special" recipes out there that fit 
these requirements? 

Thanks in advance,

Laura 

P.S. I already did dir/titles on vegetable, broccoli, bean, carrots...and found
nothing.

3379.1	Ratatouille?	RANGER::PESENTI	Only messages can be dragged	`Tue Dec 17 1991 09:53`	2
	How about ratatouille? Chunks of squash, eggplant, onion, pepper, herbs and spices in a chunky tomato stew.
3379.2	Melange of Squash	FLUKES::SUTTON	He roams the seas in freedom...	`Tue Dec 17 1991 10:03`	11
	In a cookbook I bought when I got my KitchenAid mixer there's a very simple recipe I've had good luck with called 'Melange of Squash'. Basically it's one or two Zucchini, one or two yellow squash, and three or four carrots, all chopped up very fine. The recipe called for this all to be sauteed in butter, but I've had just as good - if not better - results just heating it in the microwave (less fat). Get it good and hot, and just before serving stir some fresh lemon juice (I use maybe 1/2 to one whole small lemon) into it, and maybe some salt & pepper. /Harry
3379.3	VEGETABLE MEDLEY	FORUM::ANDERSON		`Tue Dec 17 1991 12:15`	15
	Vegetable Medley In a large pot (4 quart) put in any vegetables you want...i.e., broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, green beans, lima beans, canned corn, frozen peas, etc.! Pour in one large bottle Italian (salad) dressing (you can buy the low fat, low calorie, lite) and then fill up the bottle with water and pour that in. Simmer...serve. Can be cooked at home and then put in the microwave for 3 minutes to reheat. That's our vegetable dish for Easter...a big hit!
