I love this recipe because our garden produces a lot of zucchini in the summer and this is a quick, easy, delicious way to eat it up.

Makes about 3 cups.

Ingredients:

ZUCCHINI (2 medium or 3 small)

1 Tb OLIVE OIL

2 cloves minced GARLIC

2-3 tsp grated PARMESAN CHEESE (optional)

SALT to taste

1. Heat a 10 or 12 inch frying pan on medium heat.  Add oil and wait a minute for the oil to heat.

2. Slice the zucchini about ¼ inch thick and add it to the pan.  If the slices are not bite sized, cut them in half. Add the garlic and stir every few minutes until the zucchini begins to look clear.

3. Remove from heat, sprinkle on cheese and serve.  (Try a piece; if it’s not tender enough, cover the pan and let it sit for another few minutes.)
