Lemony Ricotta Summer Squash Galette image

Using refrigerated piecrust takes all the hard work out of this weeknight-friendly dish. The key to a successful galette is a filling that doesn't become runny while baking. Salting the squash helps remove the excess water so you don't end up with a soggy crust

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown, but the galette was still delicious. I'll try baking it for a little longer next time.

This galette was a bit too lemony for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try it again with less lemon next time.
