I have a quick, delicious recipe for you involving lots of fresh garden goodies! I used my vegetable peeler to make some ribbons of my zucchini. Then I also shucked some corn and then halved some grape tomatoes to another another flavor dimension and pop of color. A quick saute in a pan and topped off with fresh basil, salt, and pepper and you have a healthy, fresh, nutrient packed dish!

2. Add zucchini ribbons. Cook for just a couple minutes until slightly softened.

4. Remove from heat and add fresh basil and salt and pepper.
If you're headed to the farmer's market this weekend, don't forget to pick up a couple zucchinis! Or if you are lucky enough to have your own garden, use the ones piling up on the countertop.
