Summer Squash Herb Salad

Here is a nice way to prepare summer squash in a salad. The beauty of these squashes is that they’re harvested with the skin still soft, so you don’t have to peel and can enjoy all the benefits of the rind. We like it with our onion bread.

In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, oil, onion, herbs, and salt. Add the squash and mix to cover with the marinade. Leave to marinate for 2 hours and serve.
