Nice, light, and healthy recipe. The zucchini seem to be a bit strange at first, but work out quite well. Use freshly cracked pepper liberally.

This was quite good. I seemed to have way too much zucchini, however. Not sure if we interpret "small" different..that could be why. Even though I sliced the zucchini thin, it didn't seem to steam or cook at all during the 5 minutes that the pot sits. I'm not sure if it's because I had such an abundance of zuc in the pot or not.
