Baby Squash Stir Fry------

Rita~'s Note:

I saw these in the market and I just couldn't leave them there. It should be Italian but I made it Asian style! This is a quick and easy dish! You are stir frying quickly to keep the vitamins from escaping. Taste before adding salt. Serve as is, over rice, noodles, or on a bed of greens....

My husband and I both enjoyed this dish! I used baby summer squash and red, yellow, orange, and green peppers. This made a nice side dish. Thanks Rita!

Very good baby squash, I made baby squash about like this. I made it like recipe said but added some pepper flakes for a little zipp. Love the sesame oil and soy sauce it adds a lot of flavor. Thank you Rita for posting the recipe, I will be making it again.
