I fixed this last night and cut the recipe in half, added some onions and garlic (which I sauteed a little) and I also cut the butter down as suggested. Very easy and delicious. Served it with Meatloaf#15163 and a baked potato. Made for Zaar Cookbook tag game.

Definitely a nice, quick side dish. I think it needs some onion and/or garlic to liven up the flavor, though. I used 2 medium zucchini and cut the amount of butter to 1/4 cup. Even though I cut the butter down, the texture was very watery on the bottom. I'd make this again, but add the onions, garlic and cut down on the liquid somehow. Thanx!

Delicious! My husband raved about it and it was super simple to prepare. I have made it twice already. The second time, I cut the butter to 2 Tbsp and used fat free sour cream and 2% cheese. My husband couldn't tell the difference. Try this recipe even if you don't like zucchini, you'll love it!
