Preparation

Step 1

Wash the squash and trim the ends. Cut lengthwise and then cut horizontally into half-inch slices. Pieces should be bite-size (they'll shrink when you cook them).

Heat olive oil in a deep saute pan, and saute the onions, peppers and garlic. Add squash and stir for about three minutes until tender.

Add basil and cherry tomatoes. Stir just until tomatoes are heated and ready to pop, about two to three minutes longer.

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
