Zucchini, corn, tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions smothered in melted cheese! Yumm, great side dish, for any meal I serve with Mexican food, and an old family favorite.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds zucchini, cut into bite sized pieces
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn
1 medium onion, sliced
1 medium green bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 1/2 pounds monterey jack cheese, cubed
Directions:
1. In a saucepan with a lid, combine zucchini, corn, onion, green pepper, tomato, and vegetable oil. Cover, and cook over medium heat until tender.
2. Gently stir in the sugar; add cheese on top, but do not stir. Cover, and continue cooking until cheese is melted. Stir, and add remaining cheese; cover, and continue cooking until melted. Serve warm.
