Yes, she has made that too. Doesn’t seem to have much flavor as far as zucchini goes, so I could deal with it. What I don’t like is zucchini in soups, salads. I prefer yellow squash or some other kind.
One of my favorite ways to cook zucchini is to sauté it with onions in butter or a little olive oil, add in some fresh tomatoes that are diced (can be any kind of tomato), add some ketchup, and Parmesan cheese. Cook until tender. Salt and pepper to taste, and occasionally I’ll throw in oregano or other Italian spices. We use it as a side to pork dinners. It’s very gratifying and an inexpensive side.
I like zucchini ok in salads, but I’m not super big on that either. It doesn’t bother me in soup. I don’t mind zucchini chopped tiny and sautéed to go into a veggie omelet, with other veggies, of course.
I’m not a terribly picky eater, thanks to mom and dad and their rule to try everything. I don’t like peas and carrots mixed together. Separate they are just fine. It was a Thanksgiving staple growing up, and one dish I was happy to never serve at my own Thanksgiving table.
