Summer Squash with Bacon image

Yellow squash and zucchini are sauteed with potatoes, onion, and bacon. This is a side dish so good I tend to make it for lunch and eat it as a meal. Almost every summer my mother would have a bumper crop of zucchini and yellow squash in her garden and this was her preferred way of cooking it up.

This recipe was way too salty for me. I would recommend using less bacon or salt.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out mushy. I think I would cook the squash for less time next time.

I'm not a fan of bacon, so I used crumbled sausage instead. It was still very good.

This summer squash with bacon recipe was a hit with my family! The squash was tender and flavorful, and the bacon added a nice smoky flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
