I really wanted to try this as written, but after I cut up the zucchini and yellow squash, I realized my husband had used the onion and pepper for sausages last night. Alas, it turns out I was also out of basil, both fresh and dried, so I used the remaining ingredients and added red pepper flakes for some spice. It was awesome. I also had roasted red pepper hummus. Mine did not appear gummy after I stirred it in sufficiently. I will be making this again, hopefully with all the ingredients next time! Thank you for a healthy side dish!

I've been sauteing squash with red pepper, onions, and herbs for years. So this was very similar to a dish that's often on our table. The addition of hummus added nice flavor. Unfortunately, it made the dish look a bit gummy, so I might not add for company, but for an everyday family dish, it was a nice change.
