  • 2 medium yellow squash, sliced (zucchini would work too)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
1. Place the sliced squash into a skillet with the water, sugar and olive oil.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Cover the squash for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the steam to begin cooking the squash.
3. Uncover the squash and stir with wooden spoon.  Let the remaining water boil off and then saute the partially cooked squash for 3-4 minutes…or until begins to brown.
4. Once a few of the squash slices begin to brown, saute another 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
5. Serve warm as side dish.
Makes 6-8 side dish portions.
