Our mom acquired this recipe from somewhere - I think from a co-worker of our dad's years ago. The co-worker actually titled the dish "Calavasitas," but when I checked around on the internet the most common spelling listed was "Calabacitas," meaning "little squash" in Spanish. I don't know why the different spellings (since I don't know the first thing about any other language except my own). Either way, it's a yummy way to use that extra zucchini from the garden, or (if you live in Arizona and your zucchini died many months ago) from the grocery store.
Ingredients:
4 medium green zucchini, sliced
1/2 onion, chopped
2 small tomatoes, chopped
1 cup corn (canned, frozen, or even better, fresh!)
Cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper
Directions:
- Saute onion and tomato with a little butter.
- Add zucchini, corn, salt, and pepper and cook until soft.
- Top with cheese and serve.
