Calabacitas (Spanish word for squash)

2 tablespoons olive oil or canola oil
2 zucchini diced
2 yellow squash diced
1 ear of corn, kernels removed
Half onion diced
1-teaspoon kosher salt
½-teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove diced
½-teaspoon black pepper

Dice some onion, zucchini, and yellow squash and set aside in a bowl. Clean and prepare an ear of corn and remove the kernels using a bowl to keep them all together. I like to use a bowl so that it catches all the kernels and they don’t spread all over. Now heat a medium size sauté pan on medium to high heat, add oil, then add mix to pan and stir occasionally for 20 minutes. After 10 minutes of cooking, add garlic and black pepper and salt. Continue cooking until softened. Serve with enchiladas, beans, tamales, or in a burrito. It is mainly a side dish, but can easily be made into a main dish!
