Preparing the Vegetables
Begin by heating the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red and yellow bell peppers, cooking for 2‑3 minutes until they start to soften. Toss in the shredded carrots and continue sautéing for another minute. Finally, stir in the spinach; it will wilt in just 30 seconds. Season lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove from heat and let cool slightly. This brief sauté concentrates flavors while preventing excess moisture from making the muffins soggy.
