Sauteed zucchini with plum tomatoes
This simple side dish recipe is a great way to use your summer garden zucchini and tomatoes. Use a good extra virgin olive oil and fresh tomatoes for the best flavor. Another summer side that I love is this easy grilled zucchini recipe. And when I have more time, this zucchini lasagna is my all-time favorite!
Tommy isn't a fan of zucchini, but he raved about this dish and asked me to keep it rotating. It's pretty simple, but delicious this time of year! It would also be wonderful over pasta or serve with anything you grill, from chicken to pork chops to fish! This is great for dairy-free diets as well as for Whole30 and Vegetarian.
Variations
- The ingredients are simple. If you want to replace the herbs of Provence, you can use basil, oregano, or Italian seasoning instead.
- Any variety of tomato is great as long as it is ripe. Grape tomatoes or beef steak are great options.
- You can also add some yellow pumpkin along with zucchini and tomatoes.
