Zucchini Tomato Medley (Spicy)

Ingredients

• 4 -6 zucchini
• sliced
• 1 -2 yellow squash
• sliced
• 3 -4 whole fresh tomatoes
• diced or 1 can stewed tomatoes or 1 can diced tomato
• 1 -2 can tomato sauce (this just depends on how much sauce you want)
• 1 large onion
• thinly sliced (I prefer white onions)
• 2 -3 cloves garlic
• minced
• 1 -2 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
• salt and black pepper
• 1 bell pepper
• diced (optional)

Instructions

1. In a large sauce or soup pan, heat oil and sautee garlic and onion.
2. Add the remaining ingredients (quantity to taste) and let simmer for a minimum of half an hour (the longer the better) stirring occasionally.
3. Serve as a side dish or over pasta noodles.
4. Parmesean cheese sprinkled on top is very tasty but will add to the calories and fat content.
5. Note: I have never really measured while making this, I just throw it all together for the most part, so please add more or less of every item to your liking.
