ZUCCHINI WITH ONION AND TOMATO
This is a basic recipe for zucchini. Zucchini, because it is so abundant in summer, produces lots of recipes for "how to get rid of it". This one is for enjoying it for its own sake. The amounts for each ingredient are very flexible. Use your own judgement. It's hard to go wrong. Gardeners can avoid a glut of zucchini by harvesting it at its best, about the time the blossom drops from the fruit.

ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN
Steps:
- Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
- Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.
