I put this together a few years back. I make this as a side dish in the Summer quite often. It is flavorful and my family loves it. This is for the person who doesn't like Zucchini and tomatoes. Personally I prefer my Zucchini this way. Enjoy!

How to Make Summer Squash Mediterranean Style
- Cook garlic in a pan with 1 tsp olive oil. It takes about 30 seconds in a hot pan. Do not over brown it. Just cook until it starts to brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Add the butter and olive oil to pan. Mix together until melted. Add all vegetables to pan.
- Cook on med. high high heat. Keep stirring constantly folding veggies from bottom to top. After 5 minutes. Add the seasonings. Stir to combine.
- Cook until onions are nicely camelozed and Zucchini is cooked but not mush. Stir in cooked garlic.
- After it is cooked. Add more of the same seasonings if desired. I usually add more salt and basil. Taste it and decide for your self. ( it depends on the size of zucchin used etc. )
- Sprinkle parmesean cheese over vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine. Keep folding veggies on heat. After 3 minutes or so ready to serve.
