It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Yellow squash and zucchini are cooked with onions, garlic, and fresh basil.

1 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
2 medium yellow squash, cut in 1 inch diagonal slices
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped onions
1 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped
2 medium zucchini, cut in 1 inch diagonal slices
In a 12" non-stick skillet over medium-heat, warm the oil until hot.
Add the squash, zucchini, onions and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the slices are nicely browned.
Stir in the salt and pepper.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Made this with all yellow squash because that's what I had. I didn't have any fresh basil so I used dried. Very simple recipe and makes a quick side dish.

1-inch slices seem a little thick for pan-cooked squash. I cut them much thinner so they'd cook more evenly through. It took a while for them to brown and the onion got a little over-browned. I'd add the onion later next time. The recipe doesn't say what to do with the basil but I added it with the salt and pepper at the very end (you could just sprinkle it with the basil before serving but I wanted it mixed in more).

Excellent recipe. My garden is overrun with squash, and I love this. I add a little Season All while cooking. this will be a regular

This was one of the best (and easiest!) squash recipes we've tested. The onions, basil and garlic really gave it a lot of extra flavor. Would be a good side dish for a variety of entrees (pork chops, chicken, steak, etc).
