Garlic Vegetable Rice Medley image

I keep an herb garden and plant several seasonal vegetables each spring. I can't wait until the farmer's market opens each summer so I can see what tasty squash, beans and greens the real farmers are offering up. Then I can head home and make this recipe.-Andy Anderson, Graham, Washington
