  1. Heat a skillet over low to medium heat. Add the melted butter and sauté the garlic until it’s slightly browned. Add the zucchini, squash, and cherry tomatoes, and season with salt and black pepper. Lightly toss and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice (if using). Avoid overcooking the squash to retain its crunch. Stir to combine well, then dish out and serve immediately.
