  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add yellow squash, zucchini, and onion. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Transfer vegetables to a bowl and set aside.

  1. First of all, thanks for the quick and easy recipe. Changed it to some degree by using red, green, and yellow peppers in place of squash and zucchini. Turned out delicious. Will definitely be making this one again.
