How To Make deliciously simple yellow summer squash

• Step 1
  Wash and dry the whole squash. Cut off the ends (stem end and blossom end) and discard or compost them.
• Step 2
  Cut the squash down the middle from the stem end to the blossom end. (lengthwise)
• Step 3
  Place the cut squash on a microwave safe plate, cut side up. I rotate mine so they are in opposite directions to even out the vegetable proportions on the plate for even cooking.
• Step 4
  Place the plated squash in the microwave. Close the door and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
• Step 5
  Check the doneness by piercing both pieces on the cut side of the squash several times with a dinner fork.
• Step 6
  Remove the plate of squash from the microwave. Pierce the squash a few more times. Spray or pour the oil on the cut side. Sprinkle the Mrs Dash on the pierced side of the squash.
• Step 7
  Pour the salad dressing on the cut side of the squash. It doesn't take much. Then spread it end to end on the cut side with the fork. Serve hot.
• Step 8
  Can be doubled, just add 2 minutes microwave time for each squash/serving. A medium squash is about 5-7 inches long.
