I made this last night for my family and we loved it so much that we made it again tonight. I made it just the way it says to last night and it turned out very well though the sauce was a tad thin. Maybe it's because I covered the skillet for the entire cooking time. Tonight I changed it up a bit adding different vegetables; green pepper & celery. Still a hit! Thanks for sharing!

I substituted sweet yellow onion for the red, and I added half a poblano chili, roasted and diced. I served this recipe with pasta and Italian sausage. A guest who generally avoids vegetables went back for seconds!

This was pretty tasty. I used about 5 fresh garden tomatoes, which watered it down quite a bit, but it was still good as a sauce over whole wheat spaghetti noodles. I could have thickened it up with some parmesan, but I wanted to save a few calories tonight. I enjoyed the corn in there (used frozen) and would have liked even more. Oh, I added a bunch of fresh basil during the end part of cooking time. And I used a whole sweet onion. Would have loved to use red, but I only had yellow on hand. Didn't add much salt at all- all those fresh veggies don't need it. Tasty and easy recipe!

I made a few changes to suit our tastes and what fresh veggies we have right now. First I used both fresh tomatoes and fresh corn instead of canned. Also added about a 1/4 cup of water with 1/2 of a Knorr vegetable bullion cube dissolved and some fresh basil. Then put the entire sauce over pasta. Made for a very satisfying, fresh summer meal (and a way to use up that zuchinni!!!) Oh, and added some grated parm cheese on top too! Done this way, I rate the recipe a 5!

I give the original recipe a 4 but with the suggestions made by other members and some variations I added it came out a 5!! I used it as a pasta sauce and used evaporated skim milk instead of the fattier ingredient and I thickened it up a bit with some cornstarch. I also added mushrooms, red pepper and oregano for more flavor. I will make this again, only next time I will add some spinach and more mushrooms. All in all it was a big crowd pleaser.

This was really good. I had some left over zucchini that I had roasted in the oven and that came out fine. I also don't cook in oil. I just spray the pan with cooking spray to cut down on the greasiness. And I used 1/2 and 1/2 instead of heavy cream, as that was all I had. Came out great!!

This was pretty tasty. I had the first serving alone as a side dish, but the subsequent servings over pasta. I like it much better as a pasta sauce than as a side dish. Instead of the heavy cream, I used evaporated skim milk. This would be good with the addition of chicken.

it looked nice, but the taste was not too good. Maybe something to make the sauce/cream thicker would be good.

I thought this was a great dish . . . I varied on two ingredients and the result was great overall: in lieu of salt and pepper I added some "Greek" seasoning and some traditional Italian seasonings, as well, and I used the diced tomatoes that contain basil and oregano. A little time consuming, but well worth the wait! A great recipe that I'll fix again!

This recipe didn't turn out well for me. I substituted milk for the cream, which was probably the reason it didn't work. I'll have to try it again sometime using cream.

I good idea, but it was a bit flavorless to me...all i could taste was the corn. Has to be served immediately over pasta or it gets greasy.

Wow! This is sooooo good. I added some yellow pepper and a half of a jalepano as well. Great flavor. I used fresh tomatoes from the garden instead of canned as well as the corn. Made a great sauce over bow tie pasta noodles.
