Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚. Combine the squash and onion on a large tray. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with the salt and black pepper. Toss well to combine. Cook for 25 minutes, until the squash is slightly softened and has released its liquid. Drain the mixture through a colander. Press gently with paper towels to soak up any extra moisture. Let cool.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚. Place the eggs in a large bowl and whisk. Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, thyme and black pepper and stir together. Gently fold in the squash and onions (they can still be warm when you fold them in, just be sure they're not piping hot). Transfer the mixture to a lightly-greased three-quart baking dish. Cover and bake for 20 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, cracker pieces and parmesan cheese. Sprinkle in an even layer all over the top of the casserole.
- Return to the oven for 25 to 30 minutes more, until the crackers are golden brown and the edges are bubbly. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

YELLOW SQUASH CASSEROLE
Yum! If you like a squash casserole that's full of flavor, this is one of the best we've had. The slightly sweet squash and onions are a nice contrast with the creamy savory filling. Water chestnuts give the dish a slight crunch. Topping with cheese and fried onions add even more flavor to this already wonderful casserole recipe....

Steps:
- 1. Saute chopped onion in 4 tablespoons of butter in a 10 inch covered skillet. Cook until onions are transparent.
- 2. Add yellow squash which has been washed, ends removed, and sliced into 1/4 inch slices. Squash simmering will make its own water, so place the squash in on top of the onions and with the fire low, begin steaming the squash slowly in the covered skillet. Stir frequently.
- 3. When the squash begins to make its own juice, add a light sprinkle of salt and pepper and then the diced water chestnuts.
- 4. Continue to stew squash until squash is tender and the water is mostly cooked out.
- 5. When the squash is falling apart, drain well in a colander.
- 6. Pour into a large mixing bowl. Add the soup and the sour cream.
- 7. Taste for salt and pepper.
- 8. Pour squash mixture into a 9X13 baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
- 9. Cover with foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
- 10. Remove foil. Top with cheddar cheese.
- 11. Then top the casserole with a can of French fried onions. Return to oven until onions are lightly browned (about 10 minutes).
