This was fabulous. We all like zucchini, so I'm always on the hunt for good zucchini recipes, and this is one I'm going to keep for regular use. It's really easy to prepare, too. I served it as a side dish to Chicken Cacciatore, and it was a fabulous dinner. I would cut back on the amount of oil though, as even using a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked dish to a serving bowl still left a lot of excess oil. Thanks, HokiesMom. We loved it!

I loved meeting so many wonderful people from across the globe in what were truly amazing forums and during events on the site which encouraged interaction. I miss those forums and am saddened that this is now just another recipe collection site. I will always come back here as I have so many recipes saved of my own and tried many gems.
