Squash and Cornbread

by Jane–Elizabeth’s mother-in-law

Squash:
4 cups yellow squash sliced and quartered
1/2 cup diced onion
4 Tbsp butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepepr

Place together in a covered glass dish.  Microwave until tender, about 7-10 minutes stirring halfway through.

Cornbread:
Prepare one envelope cornbread mix according to the directions.  I like the Texas brand with honey.  Place in a greased 9×5 dish.  Cover and microwave about 5 minutes or until fully cooked.  Do not over cook.

Squash & Cornbread:
1 egg
3 Tbsp diced pimento
1 Tbsp diced green chilies
Colby, cheddar, or Mexican blend cheese

Crumble the cornbread.  Add half to the squash along with egg, pimento, and chilies.  Cover and microwave for 2 minutes.  Stir in the remaining cornbread and top with cheese.  Cover and microwave for 4 minutes.
