1/2 Red Onion (sliced thinly)
1 tablespoon of EVOO
1 tablespoon of Tajin Seasoning

Add seasoned squash and sauté 4-5 minutes until tender. Reduce heat to medium. Cover skillet with lid and steam for 3-4 minutes until squash is fork tender.
Step 5
Remove cover. Add halved cherry tomatoes and stir until the tomatoes are slightly blistered. Add salt and pepper to taste.
