Summer Squash
Hubby and I have decided to get back into shape. We’re starting to hit the gym again and upping the number of fruits and veggies in our diets. I’m also going to be trying to bake less. This makes me sad, but I’ll definitely keep baking, just not 3 times a week like I have been.
Vindicate the Vegetable is a new blogging event is a perfect way for us to bump up our veggie intake and to try out some new vegetables. Hubby and I like most veggies, so it’ll be great to learn new recipes as well. This week, the vegetable is yellow summer squash – one of our favorites!
I love cooking the squash this way. It’s so simple and delicious.
Foil veggie pack – serves 4 – by ME!
2 yellow summer squash
2 zucchini
~3 Tbsp Italian dressing
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place a large piece of foil in a square pan or Pyrex dish.
Cut vegetables into cubes. Toss with dressing. Place veggies in foil packet and season with salt and pepper. Fold foil up to enclose the veggies in a packet.
Bake in oven for 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
The foil packet can be used with a variety of cooking methods. The foil pack can also be cooked on a grill.

Very, very cool looking cupcakes. Incredibly artsy. I love the flavor combos too. I will give them a go.
Very Mo-Dern cupcakes! Love me some chocolate art! Those are definitely fierce. Thanks for entering! Hope you had fun!

very cool!
Very nice, Jen!
Wow! Chocolate with some heat! That sounds awesome 🙂
Hi again! So, I think with the vanilla in this, minus the chocolate and the almond this might work well for preemie’s first birthday cake. Thanks for the help!
What a cool blend of flavors! It’s totally DIVA! And I love the chocolate swoop too!
Sounds awesome! Are the PB cups used in the recipe dairy-free? Are there PB cups dairy-free that exist?
How would you store these and for how long?
