If I were to write a love letter to this dish, here’s what it would say...🤫 Dear Summer Squash, You arrive every year like that friend who shows up unannounced with too much luggage—but somehow, we always make room. You’re not glamorous or photogenic, but you ask for so little and give so much. You play well with others and are infinitely versatile. This recipe isn’t really a recipe—it’s a tradition passed down through generations. @ashley_christensen taught me her family’s version: squash, onions, butter, time, olive oil. That’s it. No fancy techniques, just a few basic ingredients. Here’s where it gets good: the leftovers become pasta gold when stuffed in shells topped with parm and a whisper of summer tomatoes. This iteration is somehow better than the last. So next time someone offers you a bag of squash, say YES. Watch me make this simple summertime pasta that’s been on repeat in my kitchen, recipe is at the link in my bio. | Andrew Zimmern
