SAUTéED SUMMER SQUASH WITH RED PEPPER AND ONION
This is the time of year when, no matter what part of the country you live in, tables at farmers' markets are piled high with summer squash, mounds of it: yellow, light green and dark, round and long. This is a vegetable that expresses itself well in a wide range of dishes; just about every cuisine in the world knows how to show it off. It's an excellent low-calorie food, with only 19 calories per cup of raw squash. This dish is great on its own as a side dish, but it can also be incorporated into many other recipes.
