Provided by Susan Feliciano

Categories     Vegetables

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lb summer squash, sliced and blanched: yellow, patty pan, zucchini, or other variety
1/2 c diced onion
2 clove minced garlic
2 pinch salt and pepper
2 pinch dried herbs, like poultry seasoning, italian seasoning, herbs du provence, southwest seasonings, or other herb blend of your choice
1 to 1 1/2 c either fresh bread crumbs *or* cracker crumbs, such as ritz, cheez-its, or herb-flavored crackers
1 can(s) condensed cream soup, such as mushroom, chicken, celery, broccoli, or potato
2 eggs
1 c grated cheese: use cheddar, swiss, monterey jack, or even velveeta cut in cubes
1/4 c grated parmesan or romano cheese for topping (optional)
1/2 to 1 lb browned and crumbled beef or sausage (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. To blanch squash, drop the cut up squash into rapidly boiling salted water. Boil for 3 minutes after water has returned to a boil. Then quickly drain squash in a colander and immerse in ice water to stop cooking.
  • 2. Mix together the blanched squash, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, and dried herbs in a large bowl. Stir in breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs until all are well-coated.
  • 3. In another bowl, beat eggs into the cream soup; stir in the grated cheese and then mix the wet ingredients with the squash mixture.
  • 4. Turn mixture into a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Top with Parmesan or Romano cheese if desired. Bake at 350° for 35-45 minutes until set and nicely browned. Remove from oven before it dries out too much. Allow to cool 5 minutes before slicing.
  • 5. OPTIONAL: We have found that adding some browned crumbled meat to this dish makes it a hearty main dish. Italian sausage is our favorite, but we've also used ground beef and breakfast sausage. Experiment and make it your own!

EASY SQUASH CASSEROLE



Easy Squash Casserole image

This is one of the first dishes to go at any of our family gatherings and I always double it! It literally melts in your mouth! It's so creamy and cheesy and the buttery crackers on top give it a little crunch and brings it all together. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!

Provided by Glynda King @glynda31634

Categories     Side Casseroles

Number Of Ingredients 13

5-6 medium yellow squash cut into 1/4 inch rounds that has been washed
1 medium sweet onion diced small
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1/4 cup(s) mayonnaise
1/2 cup(s) sour cream
1/4 cup(s) milk
2 1/2 cup(s) shredded cheddar cheese
1 - full sleeve of ritz crackers crushed
3 tablespoon(s) melted butter
salt & pepper to your taste
2 tablespoon(s) olive oil
1 teaspoon(s) onion powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a casserole dish or tin pan. Season with salt and pepper & saute' squash and onion in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat, until tender, about 10 minutes or so, drain completely and set aside. (adjust heat if needed, being careful not to burn the squash)
  • In a large bowl, whisk together egg, garlic powder, onion powder, mayonnaise, sour cream, and milk. Stir in 3/4 cup of cheese, squash and onion. Transfer mixture to casserole dish or pan.
  • Mix crushed Ritz crackers with the butter. Put the rest of the cheese on top and then place the crackers on top of the cheese. Bake for around 30 minutes give or take depending on your oven. You want it to be golden brown on top and the cheese bubbly. (I like to put aluminum foil over the top for the first 22 minutes, then take it off for the remainder of the cook time, so the cheese and crackers don't burn on top.)
