  This dish is so easy to make, and anyone who likes squash will love it.
- 3 to 4 slices chopped bacon
- 1 large onion sliced med. thin
- 2 med. tomatoes, chopped
- 6 medium-sized zucchini, sliced
- 2 yellow crookneck squash, sliced, (or use 8 small to med. zucchini squash without the crooknecks)
- Sea Salt and black pepper to taste
Brown bacon in a heavy skillet. Don’t completely cook it. Drain off some of the grease. Add rest of ingredients. Cover and simmer-fry for approximately 20 minutes. If bacon is very lean, add a little oil and/or water to keep it from scorching. Stir often. Cook until squash is desired crispness. We like ours slightly crunchy vs. soggy.
Comment: This is a great side dish any time of the year. People who even slightly like squash are surprised how much they love this dish.Â
Comment:Â I learned this recipe from my mother, who’s been making it since she was knee-high to an aphid!
Just for fun . . .
If i hadn’t used unauthorized media, I would be Pharaoh’s favorite son.
Oh la la, Jodi! This sounds DELICIOUS (and easy!). Definitely a dish I will be trying sometime soon. Thanks for sharing 😀
I thought you would like this one, Barbara! Once you make it, you’ll always make it. Promise!
Sounds delish..and similar to something my mom made.
Reading Silky now. Started a while ago, but got interrupted. Had to reread a bit. I’m at an interesting spot now and wanna get back to it, but gotta work tomorrow, then Relay for Life at nite. So Saturday I hope to finish it.
I love sauteed veggies and even though I’m a vegetarian I can totally appreciate the bacon in this dish. (Bacon was, in fact, one of the last meats I gave up.) Though this may sound a bit weird, I’ve found a way to make tempeh taste like bacon – texture, taste and all – so that’s what I’ve been eating instead. My mouth still waters at the smell of bacon, though. 🙂
That sounds delicious! I am bookmarking this recipe to try!
Definitely on my list of “gotta tries” as soon as I get to the store. It sounds great, especially since summer squash are one of our favorites.
Mmm, sounds yummy.
