  • Place squash strips into a colander and sprinkle with salt. Allow to sit 5-10 minutes as the salt naturally drains the excess water from the vegetable. After 5-10 minutes, pat the squash with a paper towel to remove excess water.
  • Using a basting brush, brush the squash strips with olive oil on both sides and place on the grill. Cook for approximately 5-6 minutes, turning after about 3-4 minutes, until both sides of squash are lightly charred. Allow squash to cool on a plate for about 10 minutes.
  • Layout grilled squash strips and spread a thin layer of bean spread across it. Fold into threes, and then place a toothpick in the middle to hold it in place. Follow the same instructions using the pesto spread.
  • Serve immediately or can chill in the refrigerator and serve later.
