    Mine and my childrens are to make ribbons out of it!


    Ingredients
    1–2 medium zucchini
    2–3 medium yellow squash
    1 tablespoon butter
    1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper


    Steps
    Cut zucchini and squash thinly, using vegetable peeler, down length of squash until reaching seeds. Rotate squash and continue cutting ribbons until only seeds remain.
    Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Place butter in pan and then add garlic; cook and stir 2–3 minutes or until softened.
    Add squash ribbons, salt, and pepper; cook and stir 3–4 minutes or just until tender. Serve.

    The recipe came from the Publix grocery store site, publix.com all of their recipes are under the tab labeled aprons, it was easier to copy and paste than to dig out my cookbook!
