Veggie medley

*Serves about 4

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup chopped onion, yellow or red
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 medium zucchini, sliced about 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick, in rounds or half moons
3 medium yellow squash, sliced about 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick, in rounds or half moons
2-3 ripe tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, sauté the garlic and onion in the olive oil until the onions being to turn translucent, stirring constantly so the garlic doesn’t burn, about 3-4 minutes. Add the zucchini and squash, tossing well with the olive oil mixture. Sauté over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes. Continue cooking and stirring until the zucchini and squash are tender and the tomatoes have broken down, about another 2 minutes. Toss the hot mixture with the parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
