A few weeks ago on my Facebook page for this blog I made a poll asking people what my next recipe should be. It was very close but people wanted a side dish for my next recipe. The reason why I chose this Summer Veggies Bake recipe is because I know a few people who grow zucchinis and tomatoes in their garden. I’m pretty sure they are almost ripe so I thought I would give a new recipe for people to make with their vegetables from their garden!

Final Thoughts on Summer Veggies Bake
A note I need to make on the summer veggies bake I made and used for the photos: I couldn’t find any fresh basil anywhere so I used dried basil. I don’t think it tasted as good so I would urge you to use fresh chopped basil. I really hope you enjoy this recipe and as always if you do make this please let me know how it goes! Also, don’t forget to pin this on Pinterest if you want to share it!. Thanks!

Kelly Krebs, every time I see your last name it reminds me of the Krebs Cycle in my Biochemistry class in college. I also love the name of your blog; it’s very unique. I am so happy you shared this recipe. Zucchini is fairly new to my kitchen. love the simplicity of your recipe. Hope I will be able to use the fresh basil I am trying to grow in my NYC apartment.
