4 Stars, this was great as a "dump" recipe, requiring little direct supervision, but I think a bit more attention to melding the flavors would pay off big, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning would enhance this dish without making it more complicated. I invested one minute to scrape fork tines over the skin of zucchini for more decorative slices. I recommend using tomato wedges or halved cocktail or grape tomatoes instead of the canned whole tomatoes so the tomatoes will be spread out more. I served this over steamed rice with Recipe #253863 #253863. Thank you for posting this recipe, Dom and Amanda. Made for October 2008 Veg*n Swap.
