SUMMER SQUASH, TAHINI AND YOGURT DIP
Just when I thought I would never find anything new to do with the two small summer squash that were lingering in my refrigerator I came across this dish in Paula Wolfert's book "The Cooking of the Eastern Mediterranean." A simple combination of cooked squash, drained yogurt, garlic and tahini, it's another example of how you can make yogurt dips with just about any vegetable.
