Excellent saute. I sliced up yellow squash with the green zucchini to add some color to the saute and then instead of parsley I added cilantro because I love cilantro in everything. It was wonderful and a hit at the dinner table with my family and our guests.

Delicious and so easy! The only difference is that we sliced the zucchini a bit thicker- no biggie. I too love the addition of parsley- so fresh and unique!

I thought this might be bland due to the lack of herbs and spices, but we found it to be very tasty. I used white onions and vine-ripened tomatoes which imparted a lovely sweet flavour. I cut the cooking time by a few minutes in steps 2 & 3 as we like our vegetables to retain some crispness. Will make again!
