I made this recipe back in early May when the country was still closed down. I served it with Au Gratin Pork Chops so the combination between the two was really tasty. If you have an abundance of either yellow squash or tomatoes in your garden this is the recipe for you!

The nice thing about this side dish is it can be whipped up in 10 minutes. It’s the perfect side for any kind of entree, but certainly nice enough to serve for company as well. For those of you who are tired of eating plain vegetables for dinner, this recipe gives you great flavor without all the fuss. Plus, it’s really fast, and you serve your family something healthy to boot.

Yellow Squash and Tomatoes was a hit in our house. I hope you enjoy it too.
