Zucchini is now available at the Farmer’s Market.
I still remember when I first grew zucchini in the garden. I did not know what to do with the many zucchini that kept growing. Zucchini Provencal was one of the first recipes that I discovered.
Zucchini Provencal is a layered dish of zucchini, onion, tomato and cheese baked together.
Very yummy!
