  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Cut zucchini into ¼-½ inch pieces.
  • Sauté onion and oil in a Dutch oven or large pot for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.  Add crushed garlic and continue sautéing for 1 minute.
  • Push the onion to the side and add the cut zucchini. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to lightly brown.
