(For Phase One Fridays I feature Phase One Recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites. Phase One Recipes are also Low-Carb and Gluten-Free. This quick and easy dinner on the grill is perfect for this time of year when gardens are bursting with squash; hope you enjoy!)
For years I've been a fan of Fine Cooking Magazine, so when so when they invited me to sign up for their daily e-mail recipe, I did. Normally I'm not a fan of e-mail like this, but since it was Fine Cooking, I figured at least a few recipes would show up that I'd be interested in. As soon as I saw this one for Grilled Sausage and Summer Squash, I knew it would be a perfect way to use some of the squash that are showing up regularly in the vegetable garden, and I loved the way the flavor of the herbs, capers, Kalamata olives, and lemon juice brightened up the grilled squash and sausage in this dish. I used mint and parsley for fresh herbs, but the original recipe also suggested cilantro and basil, and I think you could use any combination of herbs that appeals to you. Even if you don't have summer squash from the garden, this is a great summer meal that might become one of your favorite quick grilling options for after work.
