Steps:
- Heat a heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and the onion and cook, stirring, until the onion begins to color, about 3 minutes. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring, until it is lightly colored and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, chili and salt to taste and stir together for about 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Reduce the heat to low.
- Beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Add to the zucchini mixture along with the cilantro. Cook, stirring, until the eggs are set. Fill the warm tortillas and serve.

SUMMER SQUASH WITH EGGS
From apartmenttherapy.com as adapted from Food Network. Two versions for prepping the squash are given. Halfway through preparing this recipe I discovered I didn't have enough chevre, and substituted with some locally made cream cheese. Best if the cream cheese is at room temperature or it can be whipped.

Steps:
- VERSION #1: Trim the ends off the squash and grate using a box grater or a food processor with the grating attachment. Combine with 1 tablespoon salt in a colander and let drain in the sink for 30 minutes. Squeeze as much liquid as possible from the grated squash. Add the squash to the skillet along with the tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is tender and no longer releasing liquid, about 10 minutes. Proceed with recipe in Step #3.
- VERSION #2 (my change): Trim the ends off the squash. Dice the [unpeeled] summer squash into 1/2" cubes. Cut the zucchini and crookneck into 1" slices. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced summer squash to the pan and saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Next add the shallots, garlic, and paprika and cook, stirring, until just tender and fragrant. Reduce heat to medium-low then stir in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is tender and no longer releasing liquid, about 8-10 minutes. If mixture starts to dry out too much, reduce heat. Proceed with recipe in Step #3.
- Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/4 cup of the basil.
- Smooth the mixture evenly in the skillet and make four wells using the back of a spoon. Pour 1/2 teaspoon olive oil in each well. One at a time, crack an egg into a small bowl and pour into one of the wells. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and paprika over each egg. Arrange small bits of the chevre around and in between the eggs.
- Cover and cook over low-medium heat until egg whites are set and yolks are still soft, about 10 minutes. I checked the eggs after 5 minutes, then cooked them another 2 minutes for our preference.
- Garnish eggs with basil and serve with crusty bread. A simple green salad and lightly seasoned black beans made the meal complete. I threw together a quick arugula salad. You could also serve the squash and eggs over raw greens as a suggestion.
TACOS WITH SUMMER SQUASH, TOMATOES AND BEANS
Beans such as pintos, even out of a can, add substance to this summery taco filling. Goat cheese provides a creamy, rich finish.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add chopped onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt and garlic. Cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds, and add tomatoes. Cook, stirring often, until tomatoes cook down slightly, about 10 minutes (this could take more or less time, depending on the texture and juiciness of the tomatoes).
- Stir in summer squash, chile, and salt to taste. Cook, stirring, until squash is tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes. Stir in beans and cilantro and heat through. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Heat tortillas and top with squash mixture and crumbled cheese. Serve with the salsa of your choice.

- First, make the chimichurri sauce. In a food processor, combine the parsley, cilantro, avocado, garlic and lime juice or vinegar. Process, stopping to scrape down the sides of the container once or twice. With the machine running, slowly stream in the olive oil and water. Season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and process again to blend well. Use a spatula to transfer the sauce to a small bowl and cover it.
- In a large pan over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the red onion and corn for about 5 minutes, until the onion becomes translucent. Add the jalapeño, zucchini, yellow squash and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes or longer, stirring often, until the squash has lost a substantial amount of water. Reduce the heat to low and add the cherry tomatoes and black-eyed peas, stirring until the mixture is heated through. Remove the taco filling from heat and set aside.
- In a small pan over medium heat, heat each tortilla on both sides for a few seconds until warmed. Or, stack the tortillas on a plate, cover and microwave for a few seconds, until warmed through. Spoon taco filling into the middle of each tortilla. Top with ample chimichurri sauce (don’t skimp) and sliced radish. Serve immediately.
