Want to know what Im cooking for dinner? One of my familys favorites! And its a pretty clean dish... and I serve it with (Copycat) Chipotle Cilatro Brown Rice (Rice recipe: skinnymom/2014/04/07/copycat-chipotle-cilantro-lime-brown-rice/) and a salad!

In a large deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the remaining garlic, onions, green peppers, and red peppers. Cook about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft.
