I thought we’d be venturing into some hot, comforting recipes by now, but instead we have been blessed with some hot, comforting weather for an Indian Summer! It’s a good thing too, because the zucchini & squash season is long-lasting here on the North Fork, which inspired another tasty rendition of zucchini for you to enjoy! This time, I created a dish with a light, Mediterranean flavor to it, using some ingredients that I’ve been enjoying in salads, lately. We hope that you’ll give this one a try. It’s both light & refreshing.

Mangiare, Piaccia! Eat, Enjoy!
