Serves 6–8 / Cottage cheese, fresh corn, and yellow squash make an easy, healthy, and economical summer dinner that kids will love. To cut down on moisture, you may want to salt the squash before prepping the dish, but be aware that this adds sodium. For more zip, include chopped fresh basil or cilantro in the cottage-cheese mixture. Serve with warmed tortillas.
