Sauteed Zucchini & Tomatoes

Zucchini doesn't have much taste so it's up to you to find great ways to bring out the natural flavor. Don't be discouraged! I love this vegetable because it allows me to be creative each and everytime I use it.

For this side dish I wanted something light becuase it was being paired with breaded chicken. I used classic flavor infusers like garlic, onions and fresh herbs.

Simple & Delicious.

Ingredients:
Olive oil 
2 large Zucchinis or 4 medium, sliced lengthwise and in half 
2 tomatoes, diced or  1 (8oz) can diced tomatoes
1/2 yellow onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 Tbl fresh thyme, minced
Salt & Pepper

Cooking:
1. Coat saute pan with olive oil and put on medium heat
2. Add onions and garlic and cook for 5 minutes
