Wow, this is an amazing zucchini dish. Thanks to the seasoning, it has an Italian flair without having to eat pasta. It's a great low carb, healthy dinner or side dish. The flavors from the onions, garlic, and tomatoes all meld together wonderfully. When the farmer's markets are overflowing with zucchini, add this to your menu.
