Fry your summer squash (also called crookneck squash) in cornbread mix without using any egg. This is a fast and simple recipe that I've also used for okra and zucchini. My kids gobble up their veggies this way!
Ingredients
- 0.75 cups self-rising cornbread mix , such as Martha White®
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 medium yellow squash , cut into 1/8-inch slices
- 0.25 cups olive oil , or more as needed
Instructions

1
Place cornbread mix in a 1-gallon resealable bag; season with salt and black pepper. Add squash, seal the bag, and shake until evenly coated. Remove squash from the bag and shake off any excess cornmeal.

2
Heat about 1/4 inch of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Working in batches, fry squash until the center is cooked and the edges are crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Air Fryer Spicy Roasted Peanuts
These air fryer peanuts are crunchy, spicy, and salty. I like to portion them into plastic zip bags to take to work as an afternoon snack.

Plain breaded chicken is so boring. Spice it up with a little touch of pizza.
Focaccia di Recco
This is a delicious and super fun-to-make Ligurian flatbread. It's great served as is, but I like it with arugula that's been tossed in a little olive oil.
