My partner and i belong to a co-operative gardening project, so we frequently get bushels of just one type of vegetable and need versatile recipes that we can use over and over with a variety of seasonal garden treats! We love this recipe with broccoli, fresh peas or carrots! you can use asparagus or try putting a dent in that never-ending supply of zucchini! easy to make--just cook overnight in a crock pot!
