Easy Zucchini and Corn

This recipe here is one that my husband and I grew up with. I just gave it a small twist to it. Easy Zucchini and Corn, is easy and can be made in less than 15 minutes. The zucchini gives it a bit of a crunch, the corn is sweet, the tomatoes give it that tang, and the cheese well who does not love cheese.

When I first made this recipe for my kids, it brought a lot of fond memories. My mom would make it for us all the time, she would pair it with white rice. Also, I think is so interesting that my mother-in-law would also make this dish too. However, this is one dish my husband never care for when she would make it.

I made two adjustments to it. As for the zucchini, I did not cook all the way so there is was still a bit of a crunch to it. And I added some fire-roasted tomatoes to add a bit of color.

What to eat it with?

My favorite way to have it is, to pair it with white rice. Use it a side dish and pair it with anything you’ll like. I sometimes eat on its own.
