Cook' s Notes:

Regular onions are a fine substitute for scallions.

You can garnish with fresh parsley instead of basil, if desired.

This was delicious and super easy to fix. The Italian seasoning and basil definitely added to the flavor. I didn't deviate from the recipe at all. Yum!

Very tasty, and a nice change of pace from my usual zucchini go-to recipes. I used leftovers to make a frittata the next morning.
