This is a quick n yummy recipe handed down to me from my hubby's grandmother, fondly refered to as Ma! She was a great cook and specialized in cooking for large crowds of family cowboys. Hope u enjoy it as much as we do! Could be called something else, not sure, so I named it squash medley for lack of something better. Open to suggestions though! =)

    I usually mix up a couple boxes of jiffy cornbread and serve with this. Quick, easy and yummy!

    This recipe can be altered to you liking, jalpeno's can be added for a spicy flare, or even bell pepper. Celery can be added or even corn, and I've even thought about adding beef broth in the winter and adding some salad pasta for a soup like dish.
