WORLD: Summer Squash and Corn Sauté

1 ½ TBSP light olive oil
1 large green or red bell pepper, cut into short strips
2 medium yellow summer squash, halved lengthwise and sliced ¼ inch thick
1 to 1 ½ cups uncooked corn kernels (from 1 to 2 ears)
2 medium firm tomatoes, diced
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

1. Heat the oil in a wide skillet. Add the bell pepper and sauté over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Add the squash and corn and continue to sauté, stirring frequently, until all the vegetables are tender-crisp to your liking.
2. Add the tomatoes and continue to sauté briefly, just until they have lost their raw quality. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
