Jackee's Quick Vegetarian Delight

Another good vegetable meal.


Jackee's Quick Vegetarian Delight

1 cup margarine
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 ears of corn or 2 cups frozen
3 zucchini squash, sliced into round pieces
1 green pepper, sliced
1 large tomato, wedged
1 tablespoon garlic salt
Salt and pepper to taste

Melt margarine with oil in skillet. Saute husked corn off the cob for 10 to 15 minutes.
Add zucchini and green pepper. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add tomato. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes more.
Season with garlic salt and salt and pepper.
Serve over rice.


I did not use 1 cup of margarine! I couldn't decide whether or not that was a typo on the recipe card. I replaced it with a cup of chicken broth, which gave it some good flavor without the heart attack waiting to happen. I also didn't use a tablespoon of garlic salt. I just seasoned to taste with garlic powder, salt, pepper.

It was pretty fast, pretty cheap, pretty healthy, and pretty good. It made a lot, enough for two meals for us. Take note for upcoming zucchini season.

  1. Ooh, I will take note for zucchini season. Wow, one cup of margarine. Did you just use chicken broth and the 2 T oil then, no margarine?

  2. Yum! I hope someone has lots of zucchini they don't want since we aren't growing a garden this year.

  3. Right, Emily. You can probably use less oil than that anyway.
