MEDITERRANEAN SUMMER SQUASH
"I came up with the recipe when my garden was producing like crazy and I had lots of fresh zucchini, yellow squash and tomatoes," writes Dawn E Bryant of Thedford, Nebraska. "I combined the three, added herbs, garlic and feta and came up with a colorful, flavorful dish that I really love. My son eats it up like crazy too."

SUMMER SQUASH, TAHINI AND YOGURT DIP
Just when I thought I would never find anything new to do with the two small summer squash that were lingering in my refrigerator I came across this dish in Paula Wolfert's book "The Cooking of the Eastern Mediterranean." A simple combination of cooked squash, drained yogurt, garlic and tahini, it's another example of how you can make yogurt dips with just about any vegetable.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a small skillet and add the summer squash. Cook, stirring, until the squash is very soft and all of the liquid has evaporated from the pan. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with a generous pinch of salt and mash to a purée. Add the cooked squash and mash to a rough purée. In a medium bowl, stir together the tahini, lemon juice, and a tablespoon of cold water until smooth. Add the yogurt and mix together. Stir in the squash and garlic and combine well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and allow to sit for 1 hour or more before serving. Serve at room temperature, garnished with a sprinkling of ground cumin.

- To prepare the spaghetti squash, preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up. Use a very sharp chef’s knife to cut off the tip-top and very bottom ends of each spaghetti squash. Stand the squash upright on a stable surface and slice through it from top to bottom to divide it in half. Repeat with the other squash.
- Use a large spoon to scoop out the spaghetti squash seeds and discard them. Drizzle each squash half with 1 teaspoon olive oil and rub it all over the inside and outside of the squash, adding more oil if necessary. Sprinkle salt and pepper lightly over the interiors of the squash, then place them cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, until the interiors are easily pierced through with a fork.
- Meanwhile, to prepare the chickpea salad, combine the chickpeas, bell pepper, onion, olives, chopped basil and/or parsley, garlic, lemon juice, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt. Stir to combine. Taste, and add more lemon juice and/or salt if necessary. Set aside.
- To prepare the pesto: In a small skillet, toast the pepitas over medium heat, stirring often, until they are fragrant and making little popping noises, about 5 minutes. Pour the pepitas into a food processor and let them cool for a few minutes. Then, add the basil, parsley, lemon juice, water and salt. Process while slowly drizzling in the olive oil, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary, until the pepitas have broken down to create a pretty smooth sauce. Transfer the pesto to a small bowl for serving.

- Poke several holes in the skin of the squash with a sharp knife (so steam can escape), then put the whole spaghetti squash into the microwave and cook on high power for 5 minutes. (This makes the squash easier to cut and starts the cooking process. If you don’t have a microwave or don’t want to do this, just cook the squash slightly longer in the oven.)
- Cut squash into four lengthwise pieces, scrape away seeds and discard, brush the surface with olive oil, and sprinkle with Italian Herb Seasoning (affiliate link).
- Put squash on a baking sheet that’s been sprayed with non-stick spray and roast 45 minutes (or slightly longer if you didn’t microwave.)
