Ingredients

Scale

2 medium zucchinis, sliced
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or basil) for garnish

Instructions

Heat Things Up: Grab your favorite skillet and heat olive oil over medium heat. Give it a moment to warm up, and take this time to hum your favorite tune—kitchen dancing is strongly encouraged!
Garlic Goodness: Add in the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Enjoy the aroma that wafts through your kitchen like a friendly invitation to enjoy a delicious meal!
Vegetable Party: Toss in those sliced zucchinis and mushrooms, and stir them around. Let everything mingle in the skillet for about 5-7 minutes. You want them tender but not mushy—just like your high school crush, right?
Seasoned to Perfection: Sprinkle on some salt and pepper to taste. Seriously, go easy on the salt—there’s no need to make your dish a salt lick!
Herb It Up: Finally, garnish your creation with fresh herbs. Trust me; it elevates the dish from “that might be fine” to “oh wow, look at you being all gourmet!”

Notes

If you want to add a splash of color, sprinkle on some cherry tomatoes or bell peppers while sautéing! It’s like giving your dish a fun little makeover.
Don’t worry if your garlic gets a touch browned; it adds character to the flavor (and maybe a little bicep workout from the stirring!).
Pro tip: Make sure your veggies are in a single layer in the pan to avoid steaming instead of sautéing!
