Summer is here and so are the yummy summer veggies! If your garden has squash, zucchini and some tomatoes here is a great recipe for you. If your garden is non-existent these items are ready and waiting for you at the grocery store.
I do love to cook with fresh vegetables and feel like a good mom when I feed my family veggies. Grocery stores are filled with zucchini, squash, green beans and tomatoes right now so I have been cooking with those a lot recently. To mix things up I found this recipe and changed it up a bit to fit my family. I have actually made this awesome recipe twice in the past week because it was so good!
What You Need:
2 yellow squash – sliced
2 zucchini – sliced
2 romas tomatoes or 1 large tomato – diced
1/2 onion – chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1.5 tbsp brown sugar
.5 tbsp italian seasoning
1 8oz can of tomato sauce
3-4 slices of bacon – cooked and chopped
How to Make It:
Chop all your veggies.
Cook for 15-20 minutes or until veggies are cooked.
Cover with bacon and serve!
This is such a fun way to eat veggies! Brown sugar and bacon in one dish – what could be better?! Depending on what your grocery store or garden have you could customize this recipe. Have fun with it and watch your kids eat veggies!

I really like the idea of brown sugar in the veggies! And you can never go wrong with bacon…will definitely be trying this soon š
I often combine zucchini and tomatoes and thought, “Yep, that’s my kind of recipe.” Then I saw bacon and knew I’d love it!
Love this! So good. I make something similar with eggplant, but I never thought of adding bacon. Thanks for the tip!
