SAUTéED SUMMER SQUASH WITH RED PEPPER AND ONION
This is the time of year when, no matter what part of the country you live in, tables at farmers' markets are piled high with summer squash, mounds of it: yellow, light green and dark, round and long. This is a vegetable that expresses itself well in a wide range of dishes; just about every cuisine in the world knows how to show it off. It's an excellent low-calorie food, with only 19 calories per cup of raw squash. This dish is great on its own as a side dish, but it can also be incorporated into many other recipes.

SAUTEED SUMMER SQUASH - COOK'S ILLUSTRATED
Well, actually it's America's Test Kitchen, but it's the same group. This is really delicious. I could eat 2 lbs of squash at one time....not sure I even need anything else at the meal. I didn't use any herb. You can use zucchini, summer squash or a combo of the two. I think a combination of the two is really pretty.

SKILLET SUMMER SQUASH
The good old-fashioned country way. This is definitely NOT diet food. You don't drain the bacon fat off after you brown it. If you really have to, you can substitute butter, but it won't be the same. You can also use this recipe with a combination of yellow and pattypan squash.

Steps:
- Saute squash and onion in butter until LIGHTLY browned.
- Add tomato, parmesan cheese, and garlic salt.
- Cover and cook until tender about 5 mins.
- (Longer depending on how tender vegetables are desired) Can always add more of anything- squash, tomato, cheese or butter depending on taste.
Tips:
- Choose the right squash: Look for small, tender summer squash that are no more than 6 inches long. Avoid squash that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Slice the squash thinly: This will help them cook evenly. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the squash.
- Use a large skillet: This will give the squash plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
- Cook the squash over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning.
- Stir the squash frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Season the squash to taste: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, oregano, or basil.
Conclusion:
Sautéed summer squash is a quick and easy dish that is packed with flavor. It is a great side dish for grilled chicken or fish, or it can be served as a main course with a side of rice or quinoa. This simple dish is a great way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer squash.
