Fried Zucchini/Yellow Squash (Quick, Easy and Cheesy)

Sarah in New York's Note:

I make this at least once a week when our garden is exploding with zucchini and yellow squash. It only takes about 10 minutes and the parmesean cheese makes it wonderful. You can't go wrong with this simple recipe!

• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

1. Slice squash into 1/4 inch slices.
2. Melt butter in frying pan over medium heat and add squash.
3. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and onion powder to taste.

This is a Summer Regular on our table. I prepare differently -- steam the squash and a large- rough chopped onion. Then I scatter croutons in an oven-proof bowl, add the squash mix, top with grated cheddar, and cover with foil. Place in 350* oven for just long enought to melt the cheese, and serve. Happy to see it here -- Thanks for posting.

Very simple to make but we loved it. I made it exactly as written other then I didn't measure the salt, pepper or onion powder, I just shook it on. We all enjoyed this.
