Yellow Squash - Oh Yummy!!

[former_vbg 198]

I just tried yellow squash for the first time ever in my life. A lady gave me some from her garden. I didn't really even know how to cook it, but I was willing to try it after I looked up the nutrient content. I sliced it like a cucumber and then when the when some of the slices got big I cut them in half or quarters, then sauteed them in butter. I'm still in the mushy stage and they went down super easy!!!

I love summer squash, the yellow crookneck is great! next time you fix some, take the next step and scramble with eggs and garlic and a shake of parmesan... really yum!

My mom used to make a casserole with it... cooked and drained yellow crookneck, eggs, milk, onions and salt and pepper... some cheese topped with Parmesan, baked in the oven. It was my fav. A quick version is what I posted above. Enjoy!
