Courgettes

Carol from Glen Avon - Waiwhakaiho

Iwould love to share with all who have an abundance of zucchini two of my easy favourite recipes.

Slice 2 medium or 4 small zucchini, add a handful cherry tomatoes, 1/2 a sliced red onion and toss with a little amount of oil, pepper and salt. Bake at 200 for 10 to 15 mins and the toss with 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar.
Courgettes should still be crisp and tomatoes just soft. Divine with chicken , fish or meat.

Recipe 2
Heat about 25grams butter in frypan, add 4 rashers diced bacon. When almost cooked add a handful for pinenuts and cook tossing until toasted. Add 4 medium sized courgettes grated and cook for 1minute. Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Toss through freshly cooked pasta for 4 . Serve with heaps of grated Parmesan cheese and sprinkle of parsley.

I hope some of you our there enjoy these.
