“My husband loves corn, shrimp and anything with barbecue sauce. One night, when I was low on groceries, ideas and time, I went to the garden and this recipe was born. He loves it!” —Christine Parsons, Bountiful, Utah

2 medium zucchini, chopped
4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
