This is a great summer recipe! Great served as a side when grilling steaks. I add extra cheese to the top of mine! Ingredients:
6 medium yellow squash |
1 cup chopped onion |
1 cup chopped tomato |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
1 tablespoon chopped basil |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 dash pepper |
4 ounces shredded cheddar cheese |
2 tablespoons butter |
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled |
Directions:
1. Cover squash with water; bring to a boil.
2. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 8-9 minutes or until squash is tender but still firm.
3. Drain; cool slightly.
4. Cut squash in half lengthwise; remove seeds, leaving a firm shell.
5. Combine onion, tomato, green pepper, basil, salt and pepper on a bowl.
6. Stir in cheese.
7. Place squash shells in 13x9 baking dish.
8. Spoon mixture into shells; dot with butter.
9. Sprinkle with bacon.
10. Bake, uncovered at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
11. Optional- you can sprinkle more cheese on top and bake the last several minutes till melted.
