This was a delicious dinner last evening. What a welcome break from all of the meat meals that we have been having recently. Our local store doesn't carry Roma's but a regular tomato worked well enough. Mushrooms were added as I had some in the fridge that were needing to be used and this was very good with them added. Yummy :D

So good! I love this type of dish and could eat this over and over again. I had a little bit of yellow squash left in the refrigerator, so added that in with the zucchini mixture. The next day I added some red pepper flakes and some sliced mushrooms and loved it too. Thanks breezermom for a great keeper. Made for Everyday is a Holiday Tag.
