To prepare, you can often cook this blend directly from its frozen state. For stir-fries, heat a little oil in a pan or wok and add the frozen vegetables.

For a simple side dish, steam or boil the vegetables until they reach your desired tenderness. Ensure the vegetables are heated through before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to single-ingredient frozen vegetables, this blend offers a pre-selected combination of tastes and textures.
