Vegetable stew with zucchini
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Vegetable ragout with zucchini is one of the simplest dishes you can make from vegetables. I wouldn't call it a fancy delicacy, but it's a great option for a simple and satisfying lunch or dinner. I like adding various herbs and aromatic spices at the end of cooking, which makes the dish more interesting. Those who enjoy spicy food can add chili pepper. Overall, this recipe leaves plenty of room for culinary creativity—feel free to add whatever your heart desires :) Good luck! Serve hot.
