WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUMMER SQUASH AND ZUCCHINI?
This is a question I get asked a lot. The real answer, according to Wikipedia, is that summer squash is a type of squash, and zucchini is one of the types of summer squashes. The other popular ones include Cousa Squash, Pattypan Squash, Tromboncino Squash, Crookneck Squash, Straightneck Squash, and Zucchini (or Courgette) Ridge Gourd Luffa.

Zucchini and Summer Squash are almost the same, except one is green, and the other is yellow. Both of them are mild squashes, and you can change them out in recipes.

WHEN IS YELLOW SQUASH IN SEASON?
Like all summer squashes, yellow squash is in season in the summer. The peak months are June to late August. But in most of the United States, you can find squash all year round.

Pro Tips:

• This recipe will work in any air fryer, including the Ninja Foodi, Instant Pot Vortex, Instant Pot Crisp Lid, and other Air Fyre Basket and Oven Models. The time may vary.
• Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook this in batches.
• Try not to crowd the basket, as the squash will not crisp up, and it really needs the hot air floating around the basket, to really crisp up.
• You can interchange the summer squash with zucchini or blend 50% zucchini and 50% yellow summer squash.
• Shake the basket several times during the cooking process so that it all cooks up evenly and perfectly.
• Try to cut all of the summer squash in the same size, so it all cooks up simultaneously. Thickness matters here. The thicker the summer squash is, the longer it will take for the summer squash to air fry.

HOW TO SERVE
I usually serve this with a side dish to any meal. I love serving this with a piece of Air Fryer BBQ Chicken or Air Fryer Fried Chicken.

This also pairs well with a side of Instant Pot Pasta. It makes for a great addition, with the pasta sauce.

You can also serve it as a KETO and low-carb dish by mixing the air fryer squash in with some cooked chicken or steak.

CAN I MAKE IT AHEAD?
Yes, this dish can easily be prepared ahead of time and then reheated right before serving. Keep it covered and place it into the refrigerator if you wish to make it ahead of time.

Then reheat in the Air Fryer or microwave until heated through. IF you wish to reheat it in the air fryer, place it into the air fryer basket and set the temperature to 350 degrees F, air fryer setting for 4 to 8 minutes.

This Air Fryer Squash will last in the refrigerator for about 1 to 3 days.
