Fast and easy, healthy and delicious.  There is not much more to say.  When you have tomatoes and zucchini taking over your garden, this is a great way to get rid of some.  Either a healthy lunch or a nice appetizer, you can’t go wrong.  The balsamic vinegar reduction adds a zing of flavor.  I didn’t have any basil in my garden when I made them, but if you do, you should add some of those leaves and devour it all as soon as possible!
