Asparagus

• Cover a cookie sheet with foil.  Place asparagus on sheet.  Lightly coat (spray or rub) with olive or sesame oil.  Sprinkle with seasoned salt, ground pepper and garlic.  Bake at 350 until desired doneness (15 to 30 mins).

Stir fried squash

• Heat a small amount of oil in a wok - toasted sesame, or your favorite oil.  Brown onions and crushed garlic.  Add squash (and mushrooms, if you like).  Cook to desired doneness.
