Nutrition Tip: This colorful veggie dish pairs perfectly with a vegetarian or meat-based protein. For plant-based options, try dal (lentils), hummus, or tofu. Chicken, lamb, or lean beef are also delicious options. A small amount of brown rice or a whole grain wrap could also be added to the meal as carbohydrate source. Missing a seasoning? No problem, there are plenty of flavors to enjoy. Increase or decrease the amount of cayenne to adjust how spicy your vegetables turn out.
