Squash – A Great Recipe for Summer Squash

I really enjoy getting all the veggies from people who have a garden and end up with more than they can handle so they start passing the extras to friends, family and co workers. I just received a nice basked of some yellow and green squash from one of my neighbors that I can’t wait to cook up. Squash has always been a favorite of mine and I have several different ways to cook it that I have always enjoyed preparing and serving during these hot summer months.

Many years ago I took a trip with my mother to Massachusetts, which is where she spent some time as a child and we visited several relatives all around the Boston area. One such relative served us a wonderful squash dish that I ranted and raved so much about she decided to go ahead and share the recipe with me to take home and try. So I thought that I might pass this wonderful recipe along for you to try, I hope you like it.
