"My husband and I eat this quick veggie side dish at least once a week. We enjoy it with just about any main course," reports Ally Fitzgerald of Alpharetta, Georgia. "It's a light easy way to get extra vegetables into your diet."

I hate carrots but this was really good. I couldn't find Nature's seasoning blend so I just used Italian seasoning. Really easy to make and very good!

Oops. Meant to be 4 stars. Haven't made it yet but I love both ingredients. Avery

This sounds good but a 15x10-inch pan seems awfully large for a dish that makes only 4 servings! A mistake?
