Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 2/3 cup)

CL Comments: Serve with simple grilled pork, chicken, or fish. Add
the vegetables to a hot cast-iron skillet, cover, and cook 5 minutes
without stirring so the natural sugars caramelize and add flavor.
Amy's Comments: These were incredible!! These would be perfect for
camping. I will definitely make these again and again. The sauce
gives just the right touch to this side dish. I served these with the Southwestern Turkey-Cheddar Burgers with Grilled Onions.
