I wanted a yummy vegetable side dish to go with our chicken enchiladas for tonight. I knew I wanted to do something with corn and peppers because they pair so well with mexican food. I decided to go with zucchini. I served 9 tonight, and had leftovers that I’ll be making into a salad tomorrow. Decrease the quantities to meet your needs 🙂
