Cheesy Squash

Cheesy Squash

Side dish – serves 4 to 5 people
Takes 30 minutes to prepare, cook, and serve.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium to large size yellow squash (9 to 12 inches)
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon pepper & salt
  • 1 cup of shredded Mozzarella Cheese
First: Get the fry pan heated to medium heat
Second: Add butter to get it melted
Third: While butter is melting, thinly slice squash as an angle (thin as in 2 millimeters thick or so)
Fourth: Once all sliced, add to melted butter in pan
Fifth: Add pepper and salt – flip and turn slices of squash to make sure they get somewhat coated in butter, pepper, and salt.
Sixth: Cover – let cook 10 minutes

Seventh: At 10 minutes cooking time, uncover, rotate, flip, and bring bottom slices to the top (they should start to appear transparent).
Eigth: Re-cover and let cook another 10 minutes.
Ninth: At the 20 minute mark (or in other words, next 10 minute end mark), uncover and flip slices. Check to see if they all appear transparent. If so, turn to low heat and add the cheese in a layer across all the squash slices. If not transparent yet, recover and cook for 5 more minute and repeat until all are transparent. Then proceed to cheese.
Tenth: With heat on low and cheese evenly sprinkled across, re-cover and let the cheese get melted – about 5 minutes.
Eleventh: Serve warm and enjoy the buttery, cheese, squashy, goodness!!!
