I love love love Summer Squash and am fairly picky about how it’s prepared: simplicity is the best as far as I’m concerned! This is my super easy traditional method for the best Summer Squash.
To prepare:
- Wash, trim and chop Summer Squash (1-2 per person depending on size). We like to slice them into rounds but you can chop into cubes, too. Any kind of Summer Squash or Zucchini can be used.
- Trim peel and chop 1-2 Vidalia Onions.
- In a large skillet melt (2) Tablespoons Butter, add Onions and Squash. Season with salt and pepper. Cook on medium-high heat stirring often until Squash becomes tender, cooked about half-way.
- Cover and turn off heat, allow to rest for 20 minutes before serving as a side dish or if you love Squash like me, enjoy as a meal with rice.
Sneaky Veg Tip: If you have picky eaters who don’t like Squash try preparing it this way then mixing together with Macaroni and Cheese: the textures are similar and you might find that it gets gobbled up!
