When I came across this recipe, it sounded good, but it really is delicious! It has a buttery, cheesy taste, which blends nicely with the squash. I used Ritz crackers for this, but you could probably use bread crumbs or crushed cornflakes in their place. I was also tempted to add some oregano to this, but I got busy making it and forgot to add it in.
Yellow Squash Casserole
Based on recipe here
What you need:
1/4 cup butter
4 cups sliced yellow squash
1/2 cup chopped onion
Salt and pepper to taste (and 1 tsp oregano if desired)
35 round buttery crackers, crushed (about 1 1/2 cups if you decide to substitute in something else)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
How to make it:
Preheat oven to 400 F.
In a large skillet, melt butter. Add onion and squash. Cover, and cook until both are tender, about 5-10 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
Mix together crushed crackers and shredded cheddar cheese. Divide mixture in half. Stir in one half with the squash mixture.
In a small bowl, beat eggs and milk together. Pour over the squash mixture and stir.
Grease an 8×8 baking dish. Pour in the squash mixture. Top with the remaining half of the cracker and cheese mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until casserole is bubbly and the crackers are lightly browned.
Sounds delicious!
