Squash and Hominy Saute

Submitted by linanil

"Mixing the flavors of a summer squash, either Zucchini or Yellow Squash with Hominy creates a nice blend of flavors. You can choose one squash or the other or create a mix of both of them. You can also add more or less of hominy or squash, depending on how you feel or what is available to you."

Did not care for the flavor (or lack there of) at all! When I tasted the finished saute, I knew it would be wasted effort to set it on the dinner table. I cooked the squash mixture a little longer, added about half a cup of seasoned croutons, a cup of aged cheddar cheese sauce, half a can of diced green chiles, and one beaten egg. I beat the mixture, poured it into a greased casserole dish, and topped with cheese. It salvaged a disaster!
