My great-aunt made this for a family gathering and it’s been a hit ever since, even with the kids! The water chestnuts add a different texture and my husband has even used whole baby carrots instead of shredded carrot. Easy and fast to make and a good way to use up all that squash from the garden!
Ingredients
- 2 cups sliced yellow squash
- 1 cup sliced zucchini
- 1 onion, chopped
- ¼ cup sliced green onion
- 1 cup water
