You smother that down with some onion in browned ground beef. There should be enough water in the chinis(or yellow squash) but you may have to add a tiny bit of water at a time.

Then you plate it and top it with some white gravy.
Or wrap that in some burritos or make tacos.

So much you can do with squash. I even make a zucchini or yellow squash custard.

I've made zucchini cake but never custard.

I like zucchini Bread/cake whichever.   Tasty.

I just shred my squash and then make the basic.   egg, milk, vanilla, cinnamon/opt, dash of salt always helps and sweetener.    It's an old recipe that is low in fat and calories and good for those watching their weight but need something sweet now and again.  Mix it together and put it in microwave for about 4 minutes if youre in a hurry. Can be done in oven if you like it a little more browned.

I had this girlfriend of many years..   We had such fun, going on trips the 4 of us.   Laughing...i mean hysterical laughing.  We would sit in the back seat while the guys sat in the front and to occupy ourselves we'd name one veg for instance and then come up with an appetizer, entree, side dish or two, soup and dessert all from this particular vegetable.

Well.  she got mad at me for questioning HER support of Obama after she had burned me for eight long years on that jazzack GWB.   SHE. WENT. BAllistic.   And that was the end of our friendship.   her doing.  not mine. yes she was a liberal...and became a touchy one at that. Don't cross a lib, but they can do that to you and you're expected to laugh and shut up.
