Zucchini and Sweet Corn Saute Recipe

I hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July weekend! My daughter and I went to Mankato for the long weekend to stay with my sister, Shannon and her family. We had some fun adventures exploring small towns, thrift shops, antique stores and eating at a fun restaurant. You will hear more about those adventures in a future post!

If you grow zucchini or summer squash, chances are you have way more than you know what to do with! This recipe is perfect to use up some of the extras. The flavors are delicious and along with fresh sweet corn from the garden or farmer's market, this side screams summertime!

If you need some other recipes to use up your garden bounty, make sure you try Oatmeal, Zucchini Pecan Muffins, Creamy Zucchini and Carrot Soup, Cheesy Summer Squash Rice, or Shrimp with Summer Squash and Tomatoes. They are fantastic! Enjoy!
