Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a wide, heavy skillet. Add the zucchini. Cook, stirring or shaking the pan, until the zucchini is lightly seared and beginning to soften, three to five minutes. Remove from the pan, and set aside.
- Add the remaining olive oil to the pan, then the garlic. Cook, stirring, just until fragrant -- less than 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes have begun to cook down, about five minutes. Return the zucchini to the pan, add salt and pepper to taste, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until the zucchini is tender and translucent and the tomatoes have cooked down to a fragrant sauce. Stir in the basil, and taste and adjust seasonings. Remove from the heat and serve hot, or allow to cool and serve at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right squash: Look for medium-sized yellow squash that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid squash that has blemishes or bruises.
- Slice the squash thinly: This will help it cook evenly in the casserole.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: Cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, or a combination of both will add flavor and texture to the casserole.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The squash and tomatoes should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
- Season the casserole well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs to taste.
- Top with cheese: A layer of shredded cheese on top of the casserole will add a delicious golden-brown crust.
- Serve the casserole hot: This dish is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
