In a large nonstick pan saute over medium low heat, saute olive oil and garlic until garlic is soft, about 2 minutes, being careful not to burn garlic. Add mushrooms and onions continue cooking for 2 or 3 minutes. Add squash, peppers and tomatoes, simmer for about 5 minutes until heated through, or until disired doneness.(I like my veggies crisp) Garnish with cheese and serve as a side dish or over pasta or rice for a meal.

    I lightly salt my squash and let it drain to get some of the liquid out before cooking. - 6/19/19

    Incredible!
    Easy and delicious! I'm sure you meant to include the tomatoes in the ingredients list and I thought it was great without them. - 6/13/17
