i absolutly loved this. it is great and i need something new with these veggies. -
This is nice and fresh tasting, but a bit mild for me - I think that adding more vinegar would really take it up a notch. But I enjoyed it. (I used olive oil) -
This was much easier than I thought it would be. I have a stand grater that has a mandoline-type blade on the side, and it made short work of slicing the zukes thinly. However, I did not have corn oil, so used extra virgin olive oil, and really liked the mix of flavors. I honestly don't know if I'd even try it with corn oil, since I really liked the taste with the olive oil. In any case, this makes a great presentation, wonderful blend of summer tastes, and is a keeper that I'll make often. Oh, one more thing - some torn basil as a garnish/extra flavor really added to the mix of tastes, too. Delicious! -
This was very good. I used dried italiam seasoning in place of the basil and it turned out very nicely. In future I might use fresh herbs and some more garlic. Thanks! -

I love to cook and so I am thrilled that I found recipezaar. I work as an educational assistant in a food school so I am around food all day long. I have four children, three of which have already flown the coop so to speak but I still have my 'baby' at home. (He's 21). I am lucky in that I have my summers off so I spend a lot of time trying new recipes and catching up on my reading. I also play soccer in a ladies league to stay in shape.
