Ingredients

6-8 MEDIUM SQUASH SLICED

SEASONING ( I USE NATURES SEASONING)

BLACK PEPPER

SUGAR OR SPLENDA (TO YOUR DESIRED TASTE)

1 LARGE YELLOW ONION DICED

SMOKED PORK (YOU CAN USE HAM, HAM HOCKS, A PORK CHOP OR BACON SLICES)

Directions

IN A CAST IRON SKILLET OR NON STICK SKILLET (COOKING THIS IN A CAST IRON SKILLET IS A MUST, BUT GO TO THE NON STICK IF YOU HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS), ADD A LITTLE OIL, WARM THE OIL, ADD YOUR MEAT AND DICED ONION.

SAUTEE FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES OVER A MEDIUM HEAT

ADD SQUASH AND SEASONINGS

ADD SUGAR OR SPLENDA

COVER WITH A LID AND COOK UNTIL TENDER (WHICH WE CALL SMOTHERED)

WITH THE SQUASH I ALSO COOKED SNAPPED GREEN BEANS WITH ONION & SMOKED PORK , FRIED PORK CHOPS AND JALEPENO & GREEN ONION CORNBREAD. I HAVE SUBMITTED A PICTURE OF OUR SUPPER TONIGHT. MY GREEN BEANS AND VEGETABLES WERE IN MY FREEZER. ALSO, FRESH SLICED TOMATOES WOULD BE DELICIOUS WITH THIS MEAL. THIS FRIENDS, IS A TYPICAL SOUTHERN MEAL.. ENJOY! ONE MORE THING, IF YOU LIKE THE SQUARE PLATE, IT COME FROM WALMART! HA!

I made this very dish just last night! I love it! In Alabama, we call it Fried Squash, and it MUST be cooked in a cast iron skillet! Delicious! Great post!
