seems so long I’ve been waiting

I saw this yesterday and knew Martha had the right idea. (From this month’s Martha Stewart Food magazine.)

Start with farmer’s market bounty – 2 zucchini, a squash, and 2 tomatoes. Chop the zucchinis and squash.

Put a good swirl of olive oil into a dutch oven. (Does anyone else see a naked woman pregnant with multiples or is it just me?)

Put another pot of water on to boil. Add some salt.

Put some minced garlic in the olive oil – to your taste.

Add the zucchini, squash, and salt and pepper.

Let them cook about 5 minutes, stirring quite often. Then add the chopped fresh tomatoes…

And the can of diced tomatoes. Roasted if you can find them. These are so good.

While that is cooking, add a bag of frozen gnocchi to the water, give it a stir, and let it get good and tasty.

Cook gnocchi according to package directions. Drain and add to tomato and squash pot.

And then, just because Martha said so, I added a tablespoon of butter and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese.

That woman is brilliant.

And we have another meatless Monday recipe!
