Fried Yellow SquashThis summer, we have really enjoyed fresh yellow squash, especially the locally grown. I like it most any way it is prepared. This recipe is my husband's favorite way for me to fry squash. I guess it's because it's a little sweet.

I fry it in the cast iron frying pan that was given to us as a wedding gift 56 years ago.

Total Time: 30-45 minutes

Yield: 3-4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 medium yellow squash
  • 1 sweet onion
  • salt & pepper
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 3/4 tsp bacon grease
  • Butter Pam cooking spray

  3. Spray cast iron frying pan with Pam. Place bacon grease in pan (just enough to coat the bottom of the pan). Pour off any excess. Heat pan on high.
  4. Pour squash mixture into hot frying pan. It should sizzle. Stir for a few seconds then reduce heat to medium.
