NOTES : I found that the zucchini took much longer than 5 minutes to become edible, which means that, I either need to slice the zucchini more thinly or cook it

I tried this out Sunday night and shared the leftovers Monday night. The sauce of milk, grated cheese, and dried basil made the dish seem higher in fat than it was, but I think I may add more basil next time for a stronger flavour.
