I found this recipe on Cafemom.com. Supposed to be great for toddlers....You don't have to use organic, I definitly don't.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 package frozen organic O'Brien potatoes
1/2 package organic mixed baby peas and carrots
1/4 package organic corn
0.25 (16 ounce) package green beans, 16 oz. (you may need to chop these smaller for younger kids before you cook)
1/8 teaspoon turmeric or 1/8 teaspoon favorite curry powder
olive oil, to coat

Steps:

  • 1. Combine oil and spice in large (I mean LARGE) mixing bowl.
  • 2. Add all ingredients into the bowl, stirring to coat all veggies with oil and spices.
  • 3. You now have a choice in cooking methods:.
  • a. You can dump all into a large skillet and fry on stove top until crispy and cooked through, or.
  • b. You can pour the mixture into a baking pan (or I like to use my big cast iron skillet) and bake at 350 degrees for about 30-45 minutes, stirring once after 10 minutes, then leaving alone so a crunchy top will form.
  • Tip: shivasgirl's kids think this is Indian food, so she usually serves with pooris (a deep fried bread), but they have devoured this dish all by itself.
  • Tip: You can add any veggies you want, but stick with the carrots, peas and potatoes as a base -- these even taste great if that is all you use!
