In a thick-bottomed casserole, brown the leeks and garlic in oil on medium-high heat for 5 minutes, then reduce the heat and cook for 5 more minutes.
Meanwhile, slice zucchinis over length and then into half rings. Add to leeks. Salt, pepper, and add Provence herbs.
Cook for 5 minutes while stirring at medium-high heat. Add tomatoes, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes while stirring from time to time. Add balsamic vinegar, rectify seasonings, and stir well.
Serve with meat or add a can of white beans, rinse and drain to make it a main dish.
