3 large tomatoes
1 cp fresh basil leaves
2 large garlic cloves, minced

In rectangular dish (9 x 11) lightly oil the bottom of the pan. Layer the sliced zucchini to fit the bottom of pan. Put layer of onions over the zucchini, and top with layer of tomatoes. Sprinkle half of the basil/garlic/cheese/caper mixture over the veggies. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Repeat layers and end with remaining herb/cheese mixture.
Bake uncovered in 350 oven till bubbly and veggies are cooked.
