SQUASH, YELLOW CROOKED NECK OLD SOUTHERN STYLE
WARNING! WARNING! This recipe is NOT fat or sugar free! Definitely NOT for diabetics, dieters, or the faint hearted! This is an old Southern style way of cooking squash. My family LOVES this. I only make it once or maybe twice a year when fresh yellow crook neck is available. So it is a real treat for them. I like to serve this...

Steps:
- 1. Wash and cut ends off of squash
- 2. Slice squash into slightly less than pencil width sized rounds
- 3. Add to boiling water and salt to taste Drain when fork tender (15-20 minutes)
- 4. While squash is cooking, slice/dice bacon. I usually stack about 4 of the slices of bacon and cut it down the center lengthwise, then slice the strips into pencil width pieces. (I use the best and leanest bacon I can find and I use 2 to 3 strips per pound of squash.)
- 5. Add cut bacon to large frying pan and cook until crispy on med-low heat turning frequently. Do NOT drain off fat.
- 6. When both bacon and squash are cooked, add drained squash to undrained bacon and stir to mix.
- 7. Add sugar and margarine and let cook down for another 15 to 20 minutes.
- 8. Serve hot.
- 9. NOTE: If making a smaller or larger amount of squash, just use about 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/4 stick of margarine and 2-3 slices of bacon per pound of squash.
SKILLET CROOKNECK SQUASH AND ONIONS
We. Love. Squash. Simple, with only 3 other ingredients, besides salt and pepper, this recipe sets off the delicious, slightly sweet flavor of crookneck or summer squash. Mom used to stew squash, but this vegetable releases a lot of water when it cooks, so I don't add any water. The long, slow cooking helps to release the natural sugars in the onion and the squash. You can add additional herbs or seasonings, if you like, or cook it for less time to make it firmer, but this is how we do it. Just squash.
