Melt a little bacon grease in a skillet. Add the veggies, salt, and onion powder. Toss around and saute just a little. Add about 1/2 cup of water, cover, and let steam for a few minutes (I had broccoli, cauliflower, and cherry tomatoes. Ten minutes of steaming was just about good.) Take the lid off and let the water cook off. Toss around so the extra water steams off the veggies. Remove from heat, sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and cover until the cheese melts.
If you have carrots, you might cut them small first, or maybe parboil for a few minutes, unless you like them real crunchy.

Believe it or not, I just NOW saw this! I thought at first you were talking about the actual tray itself, not the leftover veggies. I use the trays themselves for cat dishes. I have lots of farm cats, and about 8 cats will fit around one of those veggie trays to eat. Only problem is that they are 'flying discs' on a windy day! I stack up several of them to make it heavier. I've been using veggie trays for years as cat feeders. Up here in the north, I discovered that you cannot use a metal dish in the winter, as the cats' tongues stick to the dish, and so does the food. One day I wondered why no cats were eating food on a metal tray, then I realized it was not comfortable for them - their tongues were sticking to the metal! That's when I discovered using veggie trays! Plastic never sticks. It doesn't take minus temps, though. At 25 below zero they crack. Even Tupperware cracks at that temp. If it's a rubbery plastic, it's good, though.
