Recipe for Spaghetti Vegetable Dish by Staci Stallings

This week's featured author is Staci Stallings. When I asked Staci if she had a favorite recipe that she'd like to share for my Fun in the Kitchen Friday post, here's the email I received from her.  (Used with permission.)  I had to send the entire email and not just the recipe as it made me smile.

Although I'm not much of a cook (I use my creativity writing! :), I did come up with a recipe the other day that is really quite good.  So here it is if you want to use it (fair warning, I cook like my grandmother--very few measurements involved!)

Spaghetti noodles

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Garlic Salt

Your Choice of:

Onions
Zucchini Squash
Yellow Squash
Red Bell Peppers
Green Bell Peppers
Fresh Mushrooms

Cook the noodles as if you were making spaghetti.

Shred and thin cut all vegetables.

In a wok or large skillet saute the vegetables in the oil.  Then sprinkle with garlic salt to taste. 

(Around my house, we make three separate pans because one kid likes one set of vegetables, another likes another set.)

Saute vegetables until crisp-tender.  Serve over a bed of spaghetti noodles.

You could also add chicken if you want this to be a main course.

It's easy, fast, and very good!  This is one of only three dishes I make that the whole family will eat, no complaints, and be mad when it's all gone!

Peace,
Staci Stallings

Staci, 
Thanks so much for sharing your recipe with me and my readers.  I, for one, will be giving this recipe a try.  It sounds yummy and not only easily adjustable to likes and dislikes of family members, but adaptable to whatever veggies you've got in the fridge.  
Blessings, 
Susan
