Add enough water to equal 1 cup liquid.

Add the liquid to the sautéed vegetables and bring to a boil.

Cook another 2 to 4 minutes until hot.

Note from BL: It isn't necessary to use only Eden products, but for obvious reasons, their recipes use their products. I used Great Value Canned tomatoes from Walmart and some green salsa (also from Walmart).
