Being from the south I can’t help but be a true southern girl. I definitely integrate some southern flare in a lot of my dishes. Southern style food, as we all know, is known for having a lot of fried style dishes and squash is not exception.
I have grown up on squash in various forms. It is one of my favorite veggies; I love it fried, boiled, on salads…pretty much in any form. We had gotten some fresh squash from my hubby’s dad’s garden and so I decided I would fry this batch up. Instead of doing the traditional cornmeal and flour I decided to add some herbs to give it a change. It turned out wonderful and the small addition of herbs made such a difference!

Ya gotta love anything fried! I haven't fried squash before – usually I just grill, roast or saute. I just might have to try this!
