Zucchini in Sour Cream Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: Sandi Laskowski

"'Someone shared this zucchini recipe with me years ago. Light and refreshing, it complements any meat you serve it with,' pens Sandi Laskowski of Rapid City, South Dakota. Reduced-fat sour cream helps keep the calorie count down, while dill boosts the flavor. Try Sandi's sauce over chicken or grilled fish."
