Zucchini and I are friends AGAIN!

I will never make brownies without zucchini again thanks to this amazing recipe.

Roasted Tomato and Garlic Sauce

Lots of recipes for homemade tomato sauce ask you to boil the tomatoes then peel the skins. I don't get why. This way is much more flavorful and easier too. I just set the oven to 350 degrees then oiled a pan with olive oil. Then I cut up chunks of tomatoes from the garden and peeled 6 cloves of garlic and threw it all on the pan. Sprinkled with sugar and salt. Then let it sit in the oven for an hour. Took them out and strained out all the excess water, blended it all with some fresh basil and parm.

Voila!

For awhile there I was saying that I was sick of zucchini.

I spoke too soon!

I just eliminated some of the olive oil a squeezed out the shredded zuch really well.
