Baked yellow squash is beautifully crispy. You don’t have to turn the pieces, but do keep an eye on them. — Debi Mitchell, Flower Mound, Texas

Ingredients

4 cups thinly sliced yellow summer squash (3 medium)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
