- Don't overcook your vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and lose their flavor.
- Add flavor with herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of your vegetable medley. Try adding garlic, onion, basil, oregano, or thyme.
- Serve with a dipping sauce: A dipping sauce can add an extra layer of flavor to your vegetable medley. Try serving it with ranch dressing, hummus, or tzatziki sauce.
