Ingredients

2 medium zucchini

2 tomatoes

1 onion, chopped

2 Tbsp. oil or 1 Tbsp. butter

1 tsp. Basil or 1 tsp. Rosemary

1-2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Wash zucchini and cut into 1-1/2 inch strips, remove seeds from the centers with a spoon.

In medium saucepan heat butter or oil and let the zucchini and onion simmer.

Stir it so it will not burn on one side.

Boil some water and pour over the tomatoes in a bowl.

The tomatoes should be covered with the hot water.

Let them sit for 15 seconds.

Then rinse the tomatoes with cold water and peel off the skin.

Cut the tomatoes in cubes.

After the zucchini and onion has cooked for about 10-15 minutes, add the tomato chunks, the garlic, and the seasons.

Simmer until the zucchini is soft.

This makes enough for 2 people.

Serve hot and add salt to taste.

You can also add some yellow squash or green peppers to this.

It can be eaten alone with bread, or use to make eggs omelets, or as a side dish with some meat.

Sounds so very good. I love my zucchini and I put a lot up this year in my freezer.

I make a recipe that is very similar but I have never added tomatoes. Now I will because I love the taste of our garden tomatoes in just about anything. Thank you Borinka for a great "5" fork recipe.
