Posted on: May 6, 2008

Ingredients

  • tablespoons olive oil
  • cup broccoli spear
  • 1/2 cup onion, sliced (1/2 onion)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • cup green pepper, sliced (1 pepper)
  • 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomato
  • 1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano, dried
  • 1/2 teaspoon Mexican chili powder, hot
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground (or to taste)
  • 1/2 cup cheese, shredded (I use a Mexican cheese blend found at my local grocery store that consists of Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Asadero and Quesadilla cheeses)
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    2. 2
      Once olive oil begins to glisten, add all vegetables (except tomatoes) and seasonings; toss to combine.
    3. 3
      Cover skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
    4. 4
      Reduce heat to medium-low and add tomatoes to skillet, tossing to combine. Replace skillet cover and cook for 2-3 minutes until tomatoes are heated through.
    5. 5
      Top with shredded cheese. I use a shredded Mexican cheese blend, but you could use any soft cheese of your choice. Allow cheese to melt before serving.
