I’ll eat squash any way you wanna fix it. This is just a super easy way to make it and it’s summer in a pan. I envy every single one of you that has a garden💕😂Fortunately, we have an abundance of beautiful, fresh produce here in Florida and I take full advantage of it. We love the taste of squash and this can be made easily in large amounts as well as smaller.

Ingredients

1 hour or less
6 servings
  1. 6Yellow summer squash, washed and sliced thick
  2. Salt
  3. 1large sweet onion, sliced thick, I used Vidalia
  4. 1 stickbutter, sliced
  5. Onion and garlic powders, white pepper
  6. Good pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

Cooking Instructions

1 hour or less
  1. 1

    Do this earlier in the day or overnight. Add your sliced squash in a bowl. Salt it throughout, cover it and put it in the fridge until time to bake it.

  2. 2

    When ready, preheat the oven to 350. Drain your squash, completely, in a colander. There will be quite a bit of water. Rinse the squash if you want. I didn’t because it leaves my squash just the right saltiness.

  3. 3

    In a prepared pan, put in your squash. I season well at this point but leave out the salt. Toss. I break up my onion and put it on top. I dot the butter all over the top, seal it with foil and bake it for about an hour, no longer.

I'm an army brat with a Cajun mother and an Irish dad. I'm married to the love of my life, David, and we have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I've been a barber for 40 years. Im an old fashioned, old school cook and my recipes are basic. I change them up all the time.Since finding out I’m diabetic I’ve had to rearrange old habits. Any recipe I have can be made the old fashioned way OR replaced with lower carb options. Just ask and I’ll tell you what has worked for me.I’m the self proclaimed queen of the leftover. I have issues with leftovers looking back at me with the same sappy look they had the day before. Can’t do it. My super power is turning what I find in my fridge into something I want to eat. I work so much better under pressure. I live for shortcuts and not having to run to the grocery every day. Work with what you have. Adapt and overcome. Also, the less dishes, bowls, and pots I hafta use, the better. Hope some of these recipes work out for ya!
