To me, this is not a complicated dish. There are a bunch of ingredients, but it's worth it. It is VEGETABLE JAMBALAYA, so just add in your sausage or whatnot. It's basically a one pot meal, and not difficult.
This is a winter dish for me. It makes great leftovers.

3 Tbsp. oil
1 c. diced onion
2 zucchini squash diced
2 cloves garlic minced
3.4 c. diced celery
