Skillet Summer Squash

Skillet Summer Squash

The good old-fashioned country way. This is definitely NOT diet food. You don’t drain the bacon fat off after you brown it. If you really have to, you can substitute butter, but it won’t be the same. You can also use this recipe with a combination of yellow and pattypan squash.
