Taste and Our Opinion
We love this! It was very tasty, a little high in sodium, but since I love salt I was quite happy. This uses all of our summer squash and zucchini from the CSA shipment and makes plenty for dinner, lunch and dinner again for us! We will be making this or a version of it again soon.
