Shave zucchini and yellow squash to the seeds with a vegetable peeler. You will have exceedingly thin long strips of squash with bits of skin attached. Mix into this some thinly sliced onions and cucumbers. Top with dressing of your choice. (I love Italian over this.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181084496310151034.post-42755510319267406242012-07-06T18:08:08.614-06:002012-07-06T18:08:08.614-06:00Wow!

My family prefers it over the cucumber pickles as it is firmer, crisper, and has less seeds (none).langelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17890043518879123806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181084496310151034.post-7956436337646330662012-07-03T19:24:55.942-06:002012-07-03T19:24:55.942-06:00Love tank!

I found a wonderful recipe that I was able to can, and the results have been veyr satisfying. <br /><br />First, I sauteed onions and peppers in a minimal amount of olive oil, added the chunked squash, and a good amount of chunked tomatoes. Seasoned the way I like it (basil, oregano, garlic). Tossed in several quarts of last year's tomato sauce, then canned it. I have a number of pints of canned sweet Italian sausage as well. <br /><br />The resultant sauce is perfect. The squash cans just the way I like it (soft). <br /><br />For service, I cook up some penne pasta and heat the sauce, crumbling a pint of sausage into it, including the liquid. It turned out well enough that I have 24 quarts!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181084496310151034.post-8846878953833716472012-07-02T12:28:25.164-06:002012-07-02T12:28:25.164-06:00I like them.
