Sesame Zucchini Ribbons

"Taken from Ladies' Home Journal. I haven't made this yet, but I plan on doing so when zucchini and squash are abundant this summer. The ribbon peeling and the colors of the zucchini and squash make this a pretty and tasty side dish."

  1. Made for PAC, Spring 2007 ~ How much better can you get than with this unusual way of serving a side dish of squash ~ It's great-tasting & when guests see it, well...! I did make one small addition to it, in that just before serving it I sprinkled about 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds over it! Thanks much for this recipe!
