Skillet Yellow Squash and Onions - Recipe for Summer Squash and Onions from Janet:

Ingredients:

• 6 large yellow squash sliced
• 1 medium onion chopped
• 1 tablespoon bacon grease (I use extra virgin olive oil now)
• salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Slice squash in medium slices. In large iron skillet melt bacon grease or olive oil; when melted add the squash and onions in layers, sprinkling salt and pepper between layers. Cover and cook over low heat. When squash starts to become tender, mix gently and chop the squash a bit as you mix, but not a lot. Cook until squash is tender, about 20 minutes or so.

Alternative:

I put the onions in first, then the squash on top and cover – and I cook for longer than suggested (until brown and well done – more like an hour)
