  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.5 sweet yellow onion (such as Vidalia®), thinly sliced
  • 4 patty pan squash, sliced to 1/2-inch-thick pieces

  • 1 dash lemon pepper
  • 1.5 cups packed fresh spinach
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 0.5 lemon, juiced
  • 1.5 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • Prepare all your ingredients.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until frothy, around 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, approximately 3 minutes.
  • Sauté squash and garlic until squash is tender when pierced with a fork, about 5-6 minutes. Season with lemon pepper.
  • Combine the spinach, parsley, and basil with the squash mixture and sauté until the spinach wilts, approximately 1 minute.
