Sarah’s Notes: Zucchini and yellow squash also go nicely in this recipe! The texture is somewhere between a soup and a stew, and it makes a great side dish with sliced steak or shrimp. For a smokier taste, eggplant can also be sliced and cooked on the grill. I needed something that was FREE and UNLIMITED but would FEEL like another meal, if you know what I mean! This one hits the spot.
