Ingredients

  • 4 Medium Yellow Squashes halved
  • ½ cup Crumbled Blue Cheese
  • 6 Slices Thick Cut Bacon
  • ¼ cup Balsamic Vinegar high quality is best
  • ¼ Chopped Chives
  • Olive Oil Salt, Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill for medium heat. Use a cast iron skillet, griddle pan, or foil pan to cook the bacon on the grill until crispy. Remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. Chop into pieces and set it aside.
  • Halve the yellow squashes length wise. Brush a little olive oil, salt, and pepper over each half.
  • Place over direct heat on the grill, pressing down slightly to get nice contact with the grill grates.
  • Grill, cut side down for about 3 minutes then flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes or until tender.
  • Remove from the heat and place on a large plate or platter. Add the crumbled bacon, blue cheese, chives, and drizzle with a good quality balsamic and serve. 

Notes

No grill? Pop under the broiler or cook in a cast iron pan instead.
