Skillet Zucchini and Yellow Squash

Ingredients:

• ½ tablespoon
• butter
• ½ tablespoon
• olive oil
• 2 small zucchini, ends trimmed and diced
• 2 small to medium yellow squash, ends trimmed and diced
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

• In a 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until hot and rippling.

• Add the zucchini and yellow squash in as even a layer as possible (it should sizzle as it hits the skillet) and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Let it sit without stirring or moving for 2-3 minutes so it can get nice and golden. Give it a good stir, add a touch more salt and pepper to taste if needed,and let it continue to cook, stirring only every now and then, until the squash is browning here and there and tender to your liking, about 5-7 more minutes.

• Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Roasting Mix Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat veggies with 1 T olive or cooking oil. Roast on a baking sheet (lined with foil or parchment paper) for 15 minutes, then flip and roast for 10 to 20 minutes more, or until all veggies are tender and slightly browned.Season with salt and pepper to taste.
