Ingredients

▢ 4 yellow squash or other squash
▢ 1 tablespoon olive oil
▢ ½ teaspoon salt
▢ ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Cut off the ends of the squash, then quarter lengthwise into spears. (Slices or dices okay, but use a grill basket.)
Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Grill on medium heat for 3 minutes on a non-skin side, then flip to the other non-skin side and grill for another 3 minutes.
Season with more salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

You can make this recipe with half yellow squash and half zucchini. You can also use other types of squash like butternut, pattypan or acorn squash.

Use kosher salt or sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper for the most flavor.

Avocado oil can be substituted for the olive oil.

Make sure to clean the grill grates and spray with grill spray before grilling. You can also rub half an onion or potato, cut side down, on the grates to grease them. This will prevent the veggies from sticking to the hot grates.

For smaller cuts of squash, use a grill basket.
