SPICY ZUCCHINI
This was so good last night, I don't want to forget what I did! This was a great side dish for cheese enchiladas. Adjust the seasonings according to your tastes and the age of your kids. I used the lower end for my 6yo (who ate it without protest) and 20mo (who was not so fond of it). If I were to cook this for just the adults at my house, I would use the upper end. I used really small zucchini for this, less than an inch in diameter and about 5-6 inches long.

Steps:
- Place oil in a large, heavy non-stick skillet and begin heating over medium high heat.
- Meanwhile, slice onion and cut zucchini into 1/4" rounds.
- Once oil is nice and hot, saute onion until it is starting to carmelize (about 2 minutes).
- Add zucchini and seasonings. Turn heat down slightly (to medium), and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Zucchini should be yellow with some brown spots, slightly transparent looking and soft without being mushy. Onions should be thoroughly carmelized and yummy. :).

Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm zucchini: Look for zucchini that is deep green in color and has no blemishes or bruises.
- Slice the zucchini evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the zucchini will steam instead of fry.
- Cook the zucchini over medium-high heat: This will help them to brown quickly and evenly.
- Stir the zucchini frequently: This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Season the zucchini to taste: You can use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or cumin.
- Serve the zucchini immediately: Zucchini is best served hot and fresh.
