Ingredients

    1 crooked neck squash (yellow or otherwise summer squash)
    1 onion
    1 clove garlic
    1.5 cups broccoli
    3T olive oil

Tips

Don't let the pan get too hot while sauteing vegetables. A lid is helpful during cooking.


Directions

Cut broccolli into small pieces with stems, cut onion into slices, dice garlic, cut red pepper into strips, cut squash lengthwise and then lengthwise again. Chop into 1/8" slices. Heat saute pan with 1T olive oil. Add broccoli, onions, and garlic. Saute for 5 min. or more until broccoli is semi tender. Add red pepper and squash. Add remaining olive oil and cook on medium heat until all ingredients have softened. Season with pepper. Using salt will raise the sodium content. Broccoli has over 200mg potassium per 1c serving. If watching potassium, substitute broccoli for cauliflower or other low potassium vegetable.
