Stuffed Summer Squash

Here is a down and dirty way to stuff summer squash. It is about as simple as simple gets.

I am going to offer this as a set of steps. Use your instincts and tastes for this and you will be good to go. This recipe also works well with zucchini.

Approach:

1. Cut the squash in half and cook in a 350 degree oven until the pulp is soft

2. Scoop out the squash pulp and chop it

3. Cook some garlic and onion in olive oil and flavor with herbs of your choice (i.e. thyme)

4. Remove the garlic-onion mix from heat and mix in the chopped squash pulp

5. Add in some grated cheese of your choice (if desired)

6. Put the mixture back into the emptied squash halves

7. You can bake them as prepared or add additional cheese or bread crumbs as a topping/crust

8. Cook in oven until tops are crisp
