Zucchini Beef Skillet

Another zucchini recipe from my friend Megan (my LiterariTea partner). This looks easy and widely adaptable. I'm looking forward to checking it out. We often use ground turkey in lieu of ground beef, and I'm assuming that would work here.

Zucchini Beef Skillet

~from Megan

• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 sm. Onion, chopped
• 1 (16-oz.) can tomatoes
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• ¾ tsp. salt
• dash pepper
• ¾ lb. zucchini, sliced (may also use yellow squash)

In skillet, brown beef with onion; drain. Add tomatoes, garlic, salt and pepper. Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Mix in zucchini. Cover and cook 15 minutes longer, or until zucchini is tender. Serve.

*(May also add cooked black beans, green beans, corn, etc, or season with herbs to taste.)

~Serves?? Looks like 4-6 or so...maybe  more depending on what you add/serve it with.
