A fantastic southern side-dish. Bacon and yellow crookneck squash absolutely have to go together. This was so good. It was so very easy to make and the flavor is so good. Thanks for posting this recipe...I will be using it a lot!

I love yellow crookneck squash. This is really a very good and easy recipe to follow...I did not change nothing..we loved it. I already had fried bacon in the freezer that I fried myself and saved the bacon drippings and so I picked up at the drippings and cooked the onions added the Squash and seasoned,Crushed the prefried bacon. Just so easy having all the having the bacon cooked and the bacon drippings all ready...Thank You for a wonderful Veggie. Hugs

It was easy and this was the first time I used bacon with squash and onions. Everyone loved it! But I poured most of the drippings out before I cooked the onions and squash.
