Zucchini & Tomato Bake

Quick, Easy & Tasty Addon to any meal

Zucchini & Tomato Bake has consistently been my preferred go-to addition for any meal, a staple in my repertoire for years. Even when preparing a solo meal, I skip the baking and opt for the microwave – a quick 15-20 minutes (depending on the quantity, of course) does the trick. This was especially handy when the kids were younger, and I needed a flavorful addition to a schnitzel or steak.

During this time of the year, it’s particularly fantastic for us. Chris grows zucchini and tomatoes, and anyone familiar with the abundance of these vegetables understands the need to use them up. This dish is not only super tasty but also creates its own delightful “sauce.”

The beauty of it lies in its adaptability – you can throw in anything you like. It serves as an excellent base recipe. On lazier days, I sometimes increase the quantities and toss in a can of tuna and corn. The baking time remains the same since those ingredients are already cooked.

If you want it for an even easier, but not so browned addon, pop it into a microwave proof dish and put into microwave for 15-20 minutes. Still works out just as good.
For those doing WW (Weight watchers) one serve is 4 points and oh so rewarding 🙂
