Squash Overload

If you know anyone with a summer garden they're probably trying to give you bags of veggies. In those sacks are probably tomatoes, peppers, zucchinis and the ever abundant squash. The yellow crookneck squash is an over producer. You plant 4 or 5 seedlings and before you know it there is squash coming out of your ears. Yes you can do a lot with the yellow veggie but battering it in cornmeal and frying it can get old. Try this yummy dish and let me know what you think.

My boyfriend finally ripped the plants out of the ground...so now we're getting squash from his parents!
