Sauteed Squash

Simply a delicious, natural, and fast way to put some veggies into a meal! The squash has a natural sweetness to it that makes it a great complement to almost any meal. Makes sure to pick squash that is firm, thin (less seeds) and unblemished or bruised.


Sauteed Squash
Serves 4

2 yellow squash, cubed
2 zucchini, cubed
2 plum tomatoes, cubed
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1 heavy pinch oregano

  1. In a saute pan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil.
  2. Add the garlic and immediately reduce heat to medium. Allow garlic to infuse the oil until fragrant.
  3. Add the squash, zucchini, and tomatoes. Stir to incorporate with the oil, then cover. Cook for about 5 minutes.
  4. Uncover and add the oregano and a couple heavy pinches of salt.
  5. Cook until tender.
