Summer squash is another of those delicate, delicious vegetables that even kids will like. Maybe give them fewer herbs on top.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Serves: 4

2-3 summer squash (your favorite)
Butter
Several leaves each of several fresh herbs, such as dill, basil, and sage.
Salt and pepper to taste

Cut squash into 1/2 inch slices. Place slices in a vegetable steamer with an inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil over medium heat and steam for 8 minutes or until tender.

While squash is steaming, mince the herbs. Distribute squash to serving plates, dress with butter, top with herbs, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Delicious.
