Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients – zucchini, onions, tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, dried basil, and Italian dressing.

  2. Sautee Veggies: In a large skillet, heat up the Italian dressing over medium heat. ๐Ÿณ

  3. Add Zucchini and Onions: Add in the sliced zucchini and onions to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until the veggies are just about tender. ๐Ÿฅ’

  4. Introduce Tomatoes: Now, it’s time to bring in the tomatoes! Toss in both the fresh tomatoes and canned tomatoes with their juices into the skillet.

  5. Season: Sprinkle in the fresh basil leaves, dried basil, salt, and pepper. ๐ŸŒฟ Season to taste, stirring everything together.

  6. Bring to a Boil: Turn up the heat a bit to bring the mixture to a gentle boil. โณ Let it bubble away for a few moments.

  7. Simmer Away: Reduce the heat to low, allowing the veggies to simmer uncovered. Stir occasionally to let the flavors meld together. Let it go for about 20 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the sauce has slightly thickened. ๐Ÿฅ˜

  8. Serve: Once everything is cooked to perfection, serve your Sauteed Zucchini and Tomatoes hot! For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top if desired. ๐Ÿง€

  • Fresh is Best: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the most vibrant flavors.
  • Variations: Feel free to mix it up! Add in some bell peppers, mushrooms, or your favorite veggies.
  • Serve It Up: This dish goes wonderfully alongside grilled chicken or fish, or as a flavorful topping for pasta or rice. ๐Ÿ๐ŸŸ
