My favorite zucchini / yellow squash recipe
The amount of each of the following ingredients is approximate - it depends on how much you have of each item (sorry to those of you who like exact amounts!)
Ingredients
Bacon pieces (sliced thin) (ap. 1/4 lb.)
Onion (chopped or sliced thin) (one medium to large)
Zucchini/yellow squash (sliced thin) (about two medium size)
Tomatoes (skinned and chopped) (2-3 medium)
Grated yellow cheese - cheddar, colby, co-jack - whatever you like and have on hand (1/2 cup or so)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Brown the bacon until crisp, drain off most of the grease. Add onion and sauté until soft. Add zucchini and/or yellow squash, mix in skillet and cover. Salt and pepper to taste. Turn
down heat to medium. Cook until squash is as tender as you like it. Add tomatoes and cover. Cook for 5-8 minutes. Turn heat down to low and add grated cheese. Mix in and heat until cheese is melted and blended in.
Ready to serve.
A friend told me about this combination of vegetables and cheese and I started to put it together. My family loves it. I like to make a lot, serve it as a side dish and then have it
for lunch the next day.
