This is one of those combinations of vegetables that I really happen to like.
Not sure when I tried Zucchini for the first time, but I’ve always liked it. It’s pretty versatile, and can be used in various dishes. Even in cakes. Really. I kid you not. In cakes and bread. Smile.
It’s usually pretty plentiful throughout the summer with May through August considered to be it’s main growing season. But, you’ll probably be able to find it year around in your local grocery store.
Mama always cooked a lot of the yellow, crooked neck, Summer Squash, but I don’t have any memories of her ever serving Zucchini during my younger years. Even though it’s been around the United States since the 1920’s, I don’t think it found it’s way South right away.
You can have this dish on the table in just minutes, and it will go well with about any meal.

My name is Martha. I ordered your first cookbook and enjoy it immensely. I want to order your 2nd cookbook which I understand is available for shipping.
Please advise.
Zucchini & Onions!! Yum Yum. Fixed this, mixed with some yellow squash, last Thursday night for supper with other vegetables.
My husband and I are in our 70’s, raised in Spencer N.C and grew up eating like this. We “moved across the river” close to 50 years ago. We still cook like you do.
Have your first cookbook and looking forward to having “Book Two”

Love them, but never had them until I was an adult! Mom didn’t like cooked squash!I use 1 tablespoon of bacon fat to cook them in, then when they are crisp tender, I add salt and pepper, sometimes garlic powder,turn them off and put a good sprinkle of shredded Parmesan cheese on top. My husband wouldn’t eat cooked zucchini, until I made them this way, and now he is sneaking bites over my shoulder!!
YUMMM! AND – this dish can work well roasted in the oven. I love roasted veggies, especially these two. Give it a try roast at 350-400 degrees for about 30-40 minutes. I do not even stir them just let them roast. They do better in a glass baking dish or ceramic.
