SUMMER SQUASH AND ONION CHEESY CASSEROLE
My Great Great Grandmother used to make this when I was young, and it has always been a favorite of my Atlanta and Alabama relatives! I learned how to make it from my Aunt Edith Russell, while visiting her in Atlanta in the mid-1990s!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with about 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
- Melt remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, and cook the summer squash and zucchini until the squash pieces begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and spread into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with about 1/3 of the chopped onions.
- Mix together the white Cheddar cheese and yellow Cheddar cheese in a bowl until thoroughly combined, and sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture over the onions. Drizzle with about 1 tablespoon of the sweetened condensed milk. Repeat sprinkling cheese, onions, and condensed milk twice more, then top with remaining cheese mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is golden brown and the onions are tender, about 30 minutes.

SUMMER ESSENTIALS: SQUASH, ONIONS, AND BURGER
My farmer friend brought over some nice yellow squash, and said, Surprise me. And, by 2:00a, I was sitting outside enjoying a wonderful bowl of Summer squash with onions, and beef (I did not eat dinner, so I was entitled). An excellent dish that totally satisfies, and if you want to make it a side dish, just leave out the beef. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen

Steps:
- PREP/PREPARE
- I do not usually cook with extra virgin olive oil; however, this is a low-heat situation, and I like the flavor the olive oil imparts to this recipe.
- Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
- Add the olive oil to a skillet over medium-low heat, and then add the beef.
- Chef's Note: Do not completely break up the beef, leave it in chunks.
- Throw in the onions, then add a bit of salt, and pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Cook an additional 5 minutes, until they start to brown.
- While the onions and beef are cooking, add some spices. I made some suggestions in the ingredient list; however, add whatever you feel like. For example, in the Summer I go easy on the hot spices; but in the Winter, I kick up the heat level.
- Add the squash, and combine with the other ingredients.
- Add about a tablespoon of water to the pan, then cover, and allow to steam for about 5 minutes.
- Remove the cover, and continue to stir, until the squash softens, about 5 minutes.
- In this final cooking phase, check the spices, and add more... or not.
- PLATE/PRESENT
- Serve with a sprinkle of freshly grated parmesan, and a few pieces of crusty buttered bread. Enjoy.
- Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
