This dish is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often have leftover broccoli and cauliflower from other meals, and this is a great way to use them up. I also like to add other leftover vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or zucchini.

I am a vegetarian, and I love this dish because it is a great way to get my protein. The pine nuts and raisins are a good source of plant-based protein, and the broccoli and cauliflower are a good source of fiber.
