Looks yummy Thumbs up

I tried this zucchini recipe last week and it is really good! Used it as a side dish then served the leftovers over pasta for a quick meal.


Ingredients:
1-2 Small Yellow Squash, sliced
1-2 Small Zucchini, sliced
... 1 can of Diced tomatoes (or you can use 2 large fresh tomatoes peeled and cut into wedges)
1 large onion, sliced then quartered (I like sweet Vidalias but that's up to you)
1 clove of garlic, chopped
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Basil, either dry or chopped fresh
Salt & Pepper to taste
Sugar (1-3 teaspoons) This is OPTIONAL

1. Cover bottom of a large skillet with the olive oil. Turn heat to high and brown the onion, garlic and squash just a little bit. While you are browning the vegetables, sprinkle them with basil. When the vegetables are slightly browned, remove from heat.

2. If you use fresh tomatoes, cook them in a non-stick frying pan on medium heat for about five minutes to let the juices from the tomato evaporate a little. After five minutes, add the tomatoes to the other vegetables and stir. If using canned diced tomatoes, they can be added directly to the other vegetables. Salt and Pepper to taste and if you desire to add sugar, you can add it to taste. Let simmer on low until the squash is tender.
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
