Author Notes
A simple recipe that is perfect for summer! If the squash and herbs aren't impeccable it's not worth making, but if the ingredients are fresh, there's no way I'd rather serve squash. Note: this is more of a guideline than a recipe, try mixing up which herbs you use, I also love using different varieties of squash and zucchini, the pattypans are delicious! —sarah buttenwieser
