Bright red tomatoes, green bell peppers, yellow corn, green and yellow zucchinis all come together to make a colorful and flavor packed summer side dish that is perfect for an easy weeknight dinner. With some cooked chicken thrown into the mix, this could easily be a complete meal by itself.
If you have ever had a vegetable garden you likely understand just how prolific squash plants can be when they are flourishing. (Good grief, I posted over twenty squash recipes before the end of June last year!)
This year, I am thrilled to already have Roma tomatoes in my kitchen and little pear shaped sunburst tomatoes as well. When I saw that we had a couple beautiful red tomatoes this morning, I immediately knew that this skillet was going to happen tonight.

Summer in a bowl–what a pretty medley of colors and textures. You are right about those squashes–yellow and zucchini can overwhelm the garden. I'm looking forward to it.

Be still my heart! I can't wait for our squash to be over-achievers 🙂 Add a little onion and we'll be right over – yum!

Once again, so jealous of your garden…feel free to send some squash my way, those flat rate boxes from the Post Office are a pretty good deal! This is exactly how I like to eat mid summer, the fresh corn and small grape tomatoes really make it, IMO.

This looks amazing! I've got a couple ears of corn and some squash from my CSA basket this week, looks like I've now got a use for them. Thanks for sharing!

This looks great, and gives me an idea of how I might use some of that zucchini in my fridge!
