  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the veggie squares from sticking to the pan.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the veggie squares will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the veggie squares with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular options include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and marinara sauce.
