SUMMER SQUASH WITH DILL

Steps:

• Slice the squash into thin slices (1/4 to 1/2 inch thick). If it is a very large squash, you can cut these into halves or quarters to avoid serving large disks.
• Heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat; spray with cooking spray.
• Add the squash and sauté several minutes or until tender-crisp (overcooking will produce squishier squash--when it starts looking soft, stop!)
• Toss with margarine and dill in the pan, stirring until evenly coated, and cook for another minute or so.

• In a salad bowl, combine the squash and whatever liquid is in the bowl, the rice, dill, pine nuts and scallions or chives. Toss with the dressing, taste and adjust seasoning, and serve.
