Pat's Fried Squash
"This is my favorite way to fix squash. When dad had a garden, I'd grab 2 squash every morning, fresh, and fix this for breakfast. I've been known to grab 4 and fix it for me for dinner, with nothing else."

ingredients
directions
- Mix the flour, salt and pepper on a plate. Cut the ends from the squash and cut into 1/2" slices (don't remove the skin). Dip pieces into egg. Then dip into flour mixture (make sure it's coated well). Fry squash in frying pan, in oil, for about 15 minute a side, until crispy brown. Place on paper towels to drain well.
- I usually salt them while draining. It's important to let them sit on the towels a bit, because there suckers soak up the oil.
- I serve them with ketchup and for me, they are better than fries.

This is how my mom always made her fried squash, and this is how I make mine as well. Simple, easy and yummy. Thank you for sharing. -
I also added a bit of garlic powder. I also sliced a little thinner, trying to get them a little more crisp. Brings back memories of grandma's house when I was a little girl.

The little cutie here is Martha, the sweet lady I was blessed to have worked with for two years. Martha passed away on 12/3/08. Martha and I would ride endlessly during the holidays, and she would sing carols and laugh and just enjoy it so much. I know this holiday season, she will be with her brother, son and mother and finally be "home". Martha, I still love you more.

I'm a simple girl, born of good stock. I'm the mamma of two spoiled tuxedo cats: Beauregard and Patches (the one who's been drinking eggnog). They love cuddling together, and this picture is taken on my hall steps.
I'm a firm believer in LOA. I need to get more dedicated to daily practice. Below is a film that explains it, and is wonderful. I highly recommend it.

This is Beau enjoying his computer. He's quite good at deleting messages, making the desktop disappear (as is his brother). Their path to the window is over my keyboard.

This is Patches, planning his strategy to keep me awake, but cuddling his sock baby and trying to be cute to throw me off.

Beau works a long week. He's relaxing finally, after a beer.

I'm trying to figure out my new rating system. As of 10/1/06, this is how I'll rate recipes. I will be changing some previous reviews.
5*~~Outstanding recipe--the best of the best here.
4*~~Something I find delicious; will make often; would serve to guests.
3*~~Something I might fix again; enjoyed; needed something added before I try again
2*~~Something I could finish, but would never try again, regardless of additions or subtractions
1*~~Could not finish it; would not even make possums suffer with this (I haven't found many of these--only one of my own that I grabbed from the internet!!)
