SAUTEED ZUCCHINI
When there is an abundance of
zucchini, it’s great to have an easy, quick recipe handy to take care of some
of the surplus zucchini in a delicious way. I loved the simplicity of this recipe. It's so tasty, I can eat it all by myself! As you can see there wasn't much left to photograph. I could not stop nibbling! I didn't add the Parmesan to the zucchini for the first photo.
14 oz zucchini (397 g)
1 tbsp olive oil, OR bacon
fat (15 mL)
1/2 tsp bottled crushed garlic (2 mL)
