Everything season....cloudy...70's

Continuing our "Everything Season" theme from yesterday, here's one of our favorite summer dishes when you have plenty of fresh  ingredients................................

SQUASH MEDLEY

 8 yellow (straight neck) or zucchini squash, medium size, wash and parboil whole, about 5 minutes

Make filling while squash cools enough to handle

                                                                          Filling

1 large bell pepper, chopped fine

3 medium ripe tomatoes, chopped fine
2 medium onions, chopped fine
3 slices cooked bacon or ham, diced
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper (or to taste)

 Slice squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out  center including seeds (could save in freezer for soup).

Fill squash cavities with filling and place on baking sheet.

Mix 1 and 1/2 cups fine dry bread crumbs with 4 TAB. melted

butter or margarine and sprinkle on squash filling.
Bake, uncovered, at 400 for about 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
