Maries Grandmothers Party Squash Recipes

GRANDMA WILLIAMS'S SQUASH PIE

Steps:

• Put the squash in a large pot and fill with water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh sieve and press the squash with the back of a spoon to remove the excess water.
• Preheat the oven to 350 ̊ F. Transfer the squash to a blender. Add the butter and flour and blend until pureed. Add the sugar, lemon extract and eggs. Blend until smooth. Evenly divide the filling among the pie shells. (If using refrigerated pie dough instead of frozen crusts, ease into three 9-inch pie pans and crimp the edges before filling.)
• Bake until the filling is set, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let the pies cool to room temperature before slicing.

GRANDMA'S SQUASH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add squash and onion, reduce heat to medium, and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain all but 1 inch of the liquid and set the pot aside to cool for 20 minutes.
• Add eggs to the squash-onion mixture and beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Stir in 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese and all but 1/4 cup of the stuffing mix. Transfer mixture to the prepared casserole. Top with remaining cheese and stuffing.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, 30 to 45 minutes.
