I know I’ve been posting a lot of pesto recipes lately, but can you blame me? I love making one batch of pesto and having on hand to make several dishes throughout the week. It pairs so nicely with so many different types of summer dishes, including this simple recipe for sautéed summer squash.
I have to admit, I probably wouldn’t have thought to put pesto on summer squash until I had a very similar dish at one of my favorite places to eat out, Urban Plates. The dish was so, so tasty and fresh that I knew I had to replicate it at home.

Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
I use WordPress! 🙂
