To prepare, simply heat a bit of oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the entire contents of the Mélange à Poêler to the hot pan. Stir the vegetables occasionally as they cook. You can add seasonings like salt, pepper, herbs, or spices to enhance the flavor. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, which usually takes about 5-10 minutes, depending on your desired level of doneness. For a richer flavor, you can deglaze the pan with a splash of broth or wine after cooking.
