Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put a large colander inside a large bowl.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add a third of the squash to the skillet, arrange in a single layer and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the squash begins to soften and are golden brown spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the colander. Repeat 2 more times using 2 tablespoons of butter for each batch and sprinkling with 1/2 teaspoon salt and few grinds of pepper. Transfer each batch to the colander.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet along with the pepper and onion and cook, stirring occasionally scraping up any brown bits, until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Let cool for 5 minutes then fold into the squash. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Whisk together the sour cream, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Fold in the Cheddar, thyme and chives. Pour over the squash making sure that some of the mixture sinks down to the bottom.
- Microwave the remaining tablespoon of butter in a medium bowl until melted. Fold in the crackers and hot sauce. Sprinkle evenly over the squash. Bake until the eggs are cooked through and the crackers are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

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!
