You know when some recipes are so simple and easy that you feel like they almost don’t deserve to be called a recipe?
I DO.
But then you realize that sometimes, simple and easy is best. Recipes like this one for Simple Baked Squash and Potato Rounds means no fuss or mess (hooray for “making” the dish in a ziplock bag!) and equally delicious leftovers that can be transformed into something new.
And you know I’m alllll about leftovers. Kyle makes a killer breakfast hash out of these the next morning where he adds in eggs, cheese, onions, and some sort of meat (more bacon, please <3). Also, is it just me or does food taste a bajillion times better when someone else makes it for you? Hint hint… cough couch… FEED ME MORE KYLE.
So here ya go! A not-so-complex “recipe” that makes the perfect healthy side dish. Yummers.

Yup… I am truly convinced that everything tastes better when someone else makes it! Have a great weekend love!
Emily @smilemilegirl says
I love how simple and colorful this recipe is. Pinning, now.

This is one of my family’s favorite things to cook in the summer! We use zucchini and squash from my mom’s garden with some potatoes. Very simple but so delicious and filling! I like the idea of using leftovers for breakfast so I’ll have to remember that next time
Christine Skari says
Ohh that sounds SO good! I wish I had access to more fresh veggies, but usually it’s just the grocery store variety for me. Definitely try it! They taste delicioussss with scrambled eggs
Leigha @ The Yooper Girl says
Mmmmm!! Yes, food does taste better when it’s made for you. Definitely. And ziploc bag recipes? YES.
Christine Skari says
I agree! The less mess the better! More time for eating 😉
Amanda @ .running with spoons. says
I’ve honestly never thought to bake summer squash, but I’m loving the idea of pairing it with some regular old potatoes! And it’s definitely not you — food DOES taste better when it’s made by someone else… which is why I’m constantly trying to mooch leftovers from my family 😉
Christine Skari says
Hahah I do the same thing when I’m home ;). Free food! WOO!

GET IN MY BELLY! lol! Love doing this!
KAT says
I could kick myself for never thinking of this combo. Although, anything with red potatoes is a winner in my book
Christine Skari says
It’s so simple, but so good :)!
Hilary says
Yum, yum, yum! I can’t wait to chop up the zucchini and potatoes I have and make this for a side dish for our fourth of july celebration !
Christine Skari says
Mhmm I hope the dish turned out yummy if you made it and that you had a GREAT 4th of July!

I make these every week to have some on hand for lunch and dinner! So handy, simple, and delicious.
