Heat a large pan on medium high heat, cook bacon until some of the fat renders out, about 5 minutes.
Toss in garlic and onions and cook until onions are translucent.
Toss in diced zucchini and sliced tomatoes and fry until they soften.
Pour in heavy cream with marinara sauce. Mix and simmer the sauce for 10 minutes over medium heat, uncovered. Stirring occasionally.
Once the sauce has thickened, season with salt to taste.
