Roasted Summer Squash with Sage Pesto

Roasted Summer Squash with Sage Pesto
from Kalyn's Kitchen

Ingredients:
4 medium summer squash or zucchini, washed and cut into 1/2 inch slices or half slices
1 T extra virgin olive oil
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup sage pesto

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400F. (I used a toaster oven to keep the house cooler.) Wash squash and cut off stem and blossom end. Cut squash into 1/2 inch slices, cutting larger slices in half so all pieces are about the same size. Toss squash pieces with 1 T olive oil and season with salt and fresh ground black pepper.

Arrange squash in single layer on a roasting pan. Roast 25-30 minutes, turning once or twice. Squash is done when pieces are starting to soften and brown slightly on the edges.

While squash cooks, put pesto in a plastic bowl big enough to hold all the squash and let it come to room temperature. When squash is done, toss with pesto and serve hot.
