Between my grandmothers and my mom, someone always had a garden going. I rarely remember us buying vegetables from a store because we could always count on someone growing what we ate! I remember going with my great-grandmother to her garden helping her pick okra, tomatoes, purple peas, greens, etc. Let me tell yall how country we were, we ate tomatoes like apples! When we took a break from picking, we'd take a couple those tomatoes we'd just picked, wipe it off with a towel, sprinkle with salt and pepper and chow down! Store bought tomatoes, and vegetables in general, ain't got nothing on home grown vegetable goodness!
What you need:
- 1-2 yellow squashes, sliced
- 1 bunch green onions, diced
- 1 Tbs olive oil OR butter
- Salt and pepper to taste (I leave the salt out...we gotta watch our intake round these parts)
What to do:
- Place the oil in a medium sautee pan over medium high heat
- Place squash in oil. Season with spices and let it cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Add the diced green onions, stir then cover pan for about 2 minutes to finish cooking the vegetables by steaming them.
