I was looking for a way to use up some zucchini and basil, when I came across this simple recipe for Basil Zucchini. This was a great way for us to incorporate more veggies into our diets. I love anything with fresh basil, and this dish is no exception. If I was a more creative cook, I might have come up with this on my own; but I'm more of a baker and still very much a beginner cook who needs recipes. So, for those who are still in the same boat as me, I hope you enjoy this 'recipe' too :)

Okay, I admit I haven't looked at your blog in a while. But Basil, and zucchini? Holy Yum. I love both those ingredients, and I can already taste how well they would go together. Great recipe!
