I absolutely love scrambled yellow squash and onions! I can eat a ton of it. Don't worry if you burn some of it, it's still Good! As a kid I always made sure I had a patch of squash growing somewhere in the yard. The more squash I grew, the more mama would fry me up some.
https://spicysouthernkitchen.com/summer-squash-and-onions/Summer Squash cooked in a little bacon fat with lots of onion and a little thyme or tarragon. This is one of the most delicious ways to eat squash.
Summer squash is plentiful in the south during July and August. I much prefer it to zucchini. It has a natural sweetness and pan frying it brings out even more sweetness.
Fresh yellow crookneck squash are so tender and delicious, especially the smaller ones.
Summer Squash and Onions is a simple dish with plenty of flavor from bacon grease and onion.
If you wanted to make this vegetarian, you could leave out the bacon grease and use more butter or olive oil. I like to add just a little dried or fresh thyme for some herb flavor. Basil or rosemary would be good too.
If you’re trying to find more vegetable dishes your kids will eat, try this one. Kids love the sweetness. If they don’t like onions, just remove them before serving.
Mom's came out more like scrambled eggs. She used a hot pan and really scrambled 'em up. So they were darker and more mushed up (technical terms here). That's the way I liked(loved) 'em.
