A quick and easy vegetarian dish for two, or a starter for 4, or even a side. A rustic Italian favorite, taught me by my Roman friends. If serving as a main, then crusty bread, torn off the loaf by hand, and a green salad with a lemon and/or lime vinaigrettey dressing cannot be bettered.

ZUCCHINI-TOMATO GRATIN



Zucchini-Tomato Gratin image

This is a light, flavorful side dish (or main dish) that is PERFECT for summer! The steps to salt the zucchini and tomatoes isn't mandatory but will prevent this dish from getting soggy because it eliminates all excess moisture during the cooking process. The taste will remain unchanged so it's skippable, if short on time but you may have to pick this up with a slotted spoon if skipping this step.
