Squash!

We grow a variety of squashes at the farm and they're doing very well in this heat: traditional zucchini, cocozelle (striped zucchini), yellow squash, white and yellow pattypan. They can be prepared in a variety of ways, but while they're at the peak of their season I like to use recipes that put the squash front and center. My favorite summer squash recipe couldn't be simpler.

Pan Fried Summer Squash

-Olive oil or butter
-Salt / Pepper
-Squash
-2 Garlic cloves

Cut the squash into 1/2 inch cubes or slice into 1/2 inch rounds. Dice 2 garlic cloves. Heat enough oil / melt enough butter to cover the bottom of a frying pan. When the oil / butter is hot add the squash and cook on high until browned on all sides, add the diced garlic, salt and pepper. Serve and enjoy!
