I’ve always been a believer that less is more, and this Roasted Tomatoes and Zucchini Recipe supports that theory.
With just a few simple ingredients, this roasted vegetable side dish is incredibly flavorful, yet very low in calories. The cherry tomatoes are vibrant and full of a tart, juicy flavor. While the tender, sweet zucchini contrasts it. The slightly smoky taste from the roasting enhances the natural flavor of the vegetables, and it truly just tastes amazing. It’s such an easy vegetable side dish recipe to make and it goes so well with a variety of meals.
Serve it over rice with some soy sauce, on top of some spaghetti squash, or just eat it by itself!

I make something similar to this but add onion, yellow squash, garlic, red pepper flakes sea salt and dried basil. Even with all those veggies and a bit more oil it is only app. 2 points and really delicious.
Sounds delish! Thanks for the suggestion!
I like both ingredients, and think I will give this a try!
Looks yummy!
