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:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add sliced summer squash and onion. Starting to time as soon as the squash and onion are added to the pot, cook for 5 minutes. Drain well.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Stir in carrot.
- Fold in drained summer squash and onion.
- In a separate bowl, combine stuffing mix and melted butter.
- Spread half of stuffing mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan coated with non-stick cooking spray.
- Spoon summer squash mixture on top of the stuffing layer. Sprinkle remaining stuffing mix evenly on top of squash layer.
- Bake at 350℉ for 25-30 minutes until the edges are bubbly and the stuffing mix is golden brown.
- When cooking the summer squash and onion, don't worry about the pot coming back to a boil -- just cook it for the 5 minutes. If you wait for the pot to boil, you'll end up with very mushy overcooked squash.
- You can substitute zucchini, or use a combination of both zucchini and summer squash for this dish.

SUMMER SQUASH CASSEROLE
"Why don't you just cook something that tastes really good?" Julia Reed's mother said that, chiding her daughter, a writer of uncommon style and wit who used to contribute food essays and recipes to The New York Times Magazine. Her mother thought Ms. Reed spent too much time thinking about complicated, over-the-top recipes at the expense of simple, honest American cooking that draws compliments not because it looks amazing, but because it's delicious. Like, for example, this recipe, for what Julia called in a 2002 article, "the best squash casserole on the planet Earth." The ingredients are by no means fancy - summer squash, jalapeño, white bread, Ritz crackers, eggs and Cheddar - but they combine in mysterious and marvelous ways to deliver a perfect accompaniment to grilled chicken or a weekend roast.
