Sausage, fried egg, mixed veggies(cabbage, carrots, corn, jalapeno, onion, squash, tomatoes and zucchini) with whatever seasonings you got that you think would taste good, rice, and a couple lime wedges. It’s not much to look at but it is pretty damn good.


Have you tried from fresh? If you have, no worries - everyone has the right not to like things (I can’t eat raw onion or raw bell pepper, only cooked to smush) - but if you’ve only had from like frozen or something - thickish slices of zucchini and yellow squash cooked on a griddle (or skillet) in a bit of butter with some salt, msg, fresh ground pepper on top - don’t have to cook to mush, only until it gets a little bit of colour and gets a bit soft - I think that’s damn tasty.
Don’t worry if it doesn’t tempt you to try it, I’m not trying to argue you into it in the slightest. But if you’ve only had canned or frozen, that’s one where fresh makes a big difference. And while I also grew up on yellow squash sliced thin and satueed with onion and bacon, I wouldn’t recommend that one because you do need to cook the squash for a good while, so I’d imagine it would be in a state you wouldn’t like it as much.
I like squash soup. I LOVE zucchini bread. It’s the texture that gets me. Same with overly pickled peppers. Makes me gag. Love hot peppers but some foods presented in certain ways I can’t vibe.
Damn. I just realized I haven’t had sautéed (or grilled) zucchini in ages. I’ll change that tomorrow.
So easy and so tasty :)
I often do this when my wife gets chicken breast on sale from Fresh Market - good quality chicken, so I slice into medallions and saute in butter with some sort of seasnons, make a pot of rice, saute zucchini and squash, and it’s an easy and satisfying meal :)
