directions

  • Preheat the grill w/all burners on high for 10 minutes (lid down).
  • Wash the squash, pat down dry. Trim the tops and bottoms, then rub olive oil over them.
  • Once the gill is hot, turn off the center burner, turn the other burners to medium. Put the whole squash over the center burner, close the lid and cook until easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife/fork. Depending on the size of the squash, this will take approximately 12-20 minutes.
  • Turn the squash as needed.
  • Transfer the squash to a cutting board, slice, then toss with the parsley, salt and pepper.
  • Enjoy!

  1. This was really good, I had some small zucchini, yellow crookneck and some itty bitty eggplants that a neighbor had given me. Cooked on gas grill as directed. The only thing, I didn't have fresh parsley so omitted that and added small amount of butter with the salt and pepper after cutting open. We ate these like you would a baked potato. So easy and so yummy. It was just a little bit of heaven for me. Thank you for such and easy wonderful way to cook summer squash.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am married to a beautiful wife and we have two beautiful children (ages 3 and 5). I love to cook whenever I have the chance. Problem is, so does my wife, so we wrestle over the chance often! We both work (social services with teenagers) so slow cooker recipes are common. In the summer I love to grill as often as possible. I do not usually do side dishes or desserts, my abilities with desserts especially are limited. My wife on the other hand is great with them. I love gardening, planting every spring. I focus on a variety of the easier veggies (tomatoes, okra, squash, etc.) and heavily on hot peppers (habeneros, serrano, etc.). It is "therapy" for me, working in the garden. I love the outdoors.<img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
