Grilled Summer Squash Caprese

I love this time of year. Fresh farm picked veggies & fruit AND the grill. As I was looking through some magazines, this recipe caught my eye. I love yellow squah and I love caprese salad. But together? I sounds wonderful. I am going to try this out tonight.

3 pounds yellow summer squash (5 medium), cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch strips

5 TBSP olive oil

1 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup fresh basil leaves

Brush squash with 3 TBSP of oil; sprinkle with salt & pepper. Grill squash for about 6 minutes. On a platter arrange squash, tomatoes, and basil. Drizzle with remaining oil.

Bon appetit! Recipe taken from Better Homes and Garden Garden Fresh Recipes 2011 magazine.
