Summer squash sautee with teriyaki sauce

Approx. 55 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 2 servings.

I had some yellow pattypan squash and the last few garlic scrapes of the season that I wanted to use up. I added some green onions, red bell peppers, and spicy teriyaki sauce and had a tasty side dish to go with a piece of grilled chicken. You could use any summer squash for this recipe (or pretty much use any vegetable combination).

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cup summer squash (I used yellow pattypan)
  • 3/4 cup red bell pepper
  • 2 garlic scrapes
  • 1/2 cup green onion
  • 1 Tbs spicy yeriyaki sauce (I used East-West brand, Spicy Ginger Teriyaki)
  • 1/2 cup water

Directions
  1. Slice/chop all vegetables.
  2. Add water and garlic scrapes to a skillet.
  3. Bring to a boil.
  4. Add bell pepper and summer squash.
  5. Cook until tender and the water has evaporated off.
  6. Add teriyaki sauce and green onions. Heat through.
  7. Serve as a side dish.
