Simple yet delicious. You don’t always have to struggle to come up with a grill-able side dish idea, and you definitely don’t have to spend hours or even many minutes putting one together. Grilled yellow squash actually made me love squash, and let me tell you, that’s not an easy thing to do. The key for me was the onions. And that means Vidalia onions when I can get them. Always. And boy how the onions make a difference to well, boring squash. I won’t look at squash with a frown any more. I promise.
Season ‘Em Fancy Or Don’t
I also like adding my favorite seasonings to the foil packet instead of ‘just’ salt and pepper. These grilled yellow squash can take on a variety of flavors. One we truly enjoy is the Casa Seasoning from Albukirky Seasonings. It’s the perfect blend of salt, pepper, garlic and lemon, among other things. But these are still great with salt and pepper for sure.
Also try my grilled marinated medley, everything great in a single dish.
