Try adding some dinner sausage - delish! -
This is a great way to cook zucchini! It's fast, easy and so good! We planted some basil and oregano along with the zucchini this year and it's amazing how flavorful these fresh herbs are. They really enhanced the flavor of the zucchini and tomatoes. I also added a pinch of red pepper flakes. I plan to make this often during zucchini season! -
I make something similar to this during the summer with the fresh from the garden zucchini, tomatoes and herbs. We love it, and sometimes even add pasta and call it a full meal. -
I thought you were exaggerating with the "To Die For" but it really is! It's the best preparation of zucchini I've ever had and I'll definitely be making it again! And I'm going to take the previous rater's suggestion and try it over pasta. That sounds delicious! Oh, and may I add- my 2.5 year old ate it!!!!!! Thanks for the great recipe! -
I have to agree, this is excellent! I have prepared my zucchini almost the same way for many, many years. I tried this time using the flavored tomatoes, extra basil and oregano, and was very pleased with the results. I will add these from now on! Thanks for the quick, simple, yet and tasty addition to my recipes!

I add a good tablespoon of tomato pesto or a few finely chopped sun dried tomatoes just to add a deeper flavor. And if you have fresh jalapeños, like I do each summer, I add a small deseeded one to the sauce.

I love ones with pictures and love, love TOH ones. I have got my famous tilapia with jasmine rice published in TOH and have a few published in some GBP. I will find any excuse to buy a cookbook lol. I like practical cookbooks, nothing strange or difficult. Simple ordinary everyday family recipes.</p>
