THE BEST YELLOW SQUASH CASSEROLE



The Best Yellow Squash Casserole image

This is the absolute best yellow squash casserole I have ever eaten. I got the recipe from a local diner. Try it, you'll like it!

Provided by JenSmith

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large crookneck yellow squash or 2 large summer squash
1 large zucchini
1/2 cup coarsely-chopped carrot
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 large yellow sweet onion, chopped
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 1/4 cracker crumbs
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Tabasco sauce
salt and pepper
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°. Spray a medium casserole dish with vegetable cooking spray, such as Pam.
  • Slice the squashes into lengthwise quarters, then slice crosswise. Place the squashes and carrots in a saucepan, cover with water, and salt well. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cover. Cook for about 20 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, melt 3 TB of the butter over medium-low heat. Stir in the onion and cook slowly until very tender and translucent, 6-8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute or so. Place the mixture into a mixing bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and return it to medium-low heat. Add the remaining tablespoon butter; melt. Stir in 1/2 cup of the cracker crumbs and cook for a minute or so, until crumbs are golden brown. Put them on a small plate lined with paper towels to drain.
  • Now drain the squash mixture. Mash vegetables slightly with a fork or potato masher. Spoon the squash into the mixing bowl with the onions. Stir in the rest of the uncooked cracker crumbs, the cheese and a dash or two of Tabasco. Salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the eggs and spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Scatter the toasted crumbs over the top.
  • Bake the casserole, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, until golden brown and lightly firm in the center. Serve hot.

YELLOW SQUASH CASSEROLE



Yellow Squash Casserole image

This is a pretty good recipe. I haven't had a chance to try many yet. I'm new to eating squash so I had to think of many different ways to enjoy it. I have also found out that you can make this ahead of time and freeze it in either a vacuum sealed bag or freezer zip lock bag in the aluminum pans. When your ready for it just take out of freezer and pop right in the oven. Allow 15- 20 extra minutes to cook.
