Quick and Easy Peeling

To peel tomatoes quickly and easily, cut a shallow "X" on the bottom of the tomato. Put it into a pot of boiling water for about 1 minute, then rinse under cold water. The skin will peel right off. —Claire Groff, Murphy, North Carolina

This dish is so full of flavor! A family favorite after the fist time I made it!

I had most of the veggies in our garden. Great way to use those extra tomatoes and zucchini. I used garlic powder instead of a whole bulb but it wasn't enough flavor so I added oregano and basil. Turned out great.

I would love to make this I was wondering if the whole bulb of garlic was used?
