Wifey makes a really good zucchini stew. We use it on the big ones that get the hard skin syndrome. She literally just made a batch yesterday. Tomato based with corn, onion, ground beef, banana peppers.
That sounds good. We usually wait until the cool weather to make soups and stews. Once in a while I'll make a special soup if the family really wants it.
If you have a recipe for that stew, I'll gladly try it here.
