Ingredients
- 2 zucchini
- 2 yellow squash
- ½ yellow onion optional, medium
- 1-1½ tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 cup corn frozen
- garlic salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- ½ cup Colby jack cheese or grated Parmesan cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Slice zucchinis and squash into ¼-inch thick slices. Then cut each round in quarters.
- Cut the onion in half and then cut along the grain into thin slices.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and minced garlic. Add zucchini, squash pieces and corn, along with onion. Cook, stirring occasionally.
- Cook to the desired consistency (we like ours a little more cooked and soft and cooked for about 15 - 18 minutes). NOTE: Liquid will evaporate the longer you cook it.
- Remove from heat and top with shredded cheese or grated Parmesan cheese. Season to taste and serve warm.
