Last night, I decided to experiment with whatever was ready in the
garden...
all measures are approximate and from memory ;*)

3/4 cup carrot (in about 1/2 inch cubes)
1/2 cpu brocolli florets
1/4 cup brocolli stems (chopped into small pieces or sliced thin for larger
stems)
1/2 cup brocolli greens (cut into pieces no bigger than 2 inches per side)
4 cloves garlic (sliced thin)
1 small (hot) banana pepper (chopped fairly fine)
5 large basil leaves (chopped fine)
handful of oregano (chopped fine)
large handfull flatleaf parsley (chopped fine)
small jar of tomato sauce (didn't have any tomatos ripe :()
1/2 lb. ground turkey, browned and crumbled (ok, I didn't grow this
either...)

pour 1 T basil olive oil into hot iron skillet
toss in carrots and broc stems
when begin to glisten, add garlic and pepper
when begin to cook, add broc florets
when begin to glisten, add tomato sauce and meat
add oregano and 1/2 parsley and heat thoroughly
add broc greens and basil and rest of parsley
when greens have wilted, serve over pasta

Yummy and simple.  Took about 15 minutes, would probably be even better
with fresh tomatoes, instead of sauce.
