Walking in Beauty

Summer Squash Squash is a great source of vitamin C, potassium and fiber. Just one cup can serve up a large amount of these vitamins. It also contributes to our daily intake of vegetables. Summer squash can be baked, grilled or even stuffed. Try adding beans, legumes or rice to your stuffed squash. It is a fun way to get your kids involved in the kitchen and having them try a new vegetable. You can add this to other ingredients too, like onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, or green chile.

Here is a recipe to try for your summer squash:

Roasted Yellow Squash Ingredients: 1 lb. of Yellow Squash Olive Oil Salt Pepper Directions: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Wash and slice yellow squash lengthwise in half. Place on a cookie sheet face up. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Place in the oven for 15 minutes or until tender. Enjoy!
