Well, I did it.
I willingly ate cooked zucchini.
I didn't think I could, but apparently I can.
And it was good.
I sauteed it in a tablespoon or 2 of olive oil, and seasoned simply with salt and pepper (thanks, Kari!).
Derek loved it. Big Girl, not so much. But she doesn't typically allow anything green to pass her lips.
So this meal was a winner! The herb roasted potatoes were excellent, too. I wish I would have cooked them at a higher temperature to get a little more color, but I wanted to cook them and the fish at the same time, so I did a little cooking "math" and averaged the temps and times. Anyway, everything was cooked, just not as pretty as I was hoping.
And I'm not taking any credit for the stuffed sole, since I didn't "make" it. But it was good, too.
On to the next experiment!

Well, I'm proud of you!! (You would never eat it when I fixed it). Here's my 2 favorite recipes:
Add some butter to the olive oil, slice the zucchini thicker, then allow them to lightly brown on each side (watch 'em carefully). Then sprinkle with grated parm and serve. Ummmm.
OR
Chunk 'em (thick slice then quarter the slices) add to a can of whole peeled tomatoes, add some Italian spice. Simmer until as soft as you like. You could soften them first in a little olive oil, then add the rest of the ingredients.
Love you guys,

The zucchini and tomato soup (see above) is awesome! Add sausage and some crushed red pepper for an extra kick...
Betsy.
mmmmm, looks tasty :)
Oh, yeah, .....Grandma K's Zucchini Soup (zucchini, italian sausage, tomatoes, etc). That is very tasty also. I'll post the recipe if you want.
