Greek Dilled Peas, Potatoes & Carrots image

This dish is among the "Lathera" meaning cooked in oil (olive oil), spring, summer & early Fall, favorites. Usually meatless dishes cooked in a olive oil based sauce including tomatoes & garlic. Especially appreciated during Lent when meat and dairy products are traditionally restricted. I find it to be easier when using frozen...

This is my go-to recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I love that I can use frozen vegetables and it still turns out delicious.

Not bad, but not great. The potatoes were a bit bland and the dill flavor was overpowering.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's simple to make and the ingredients are easy to find. I like to add a bit of lemon zest to brighten up the flavors.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The potatoes were fluffy and the peas and carrots were still slightly crunchy. The dill added a nice touch of flavor.

This dish was a hit with my family! The dill flavor was subtle and herbaceous, and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. I especially loved the tender carrots. Will definitely make this again!
