Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 2 cups butter-flavored cracker crumbs

Directions:

  1. Saute the onions and squash in the butter and oil in a large skillet.
  2. When the onions begin to take on a bit of color (you want good brown crunchy bits), cover the skillet and turn the heat down to low for 10-15 minutes.
  3. You now have soft squash with what looks like too much liquid. Add in about 3/4 of the cheese and 3/4 of the cracker crumbs (I use generic version of Ritz crackers). Stir. Put the remaining cheese and cracker crumbs on top.
  4. Turn up the heat a bit until you get the cheese to melt. Do not stir too much, you want cheese and cruchy crumbs on the top.
  5. We enjoy this as a dinner on its own, or as a side to grilled whatever. The leftovers are good, but not quite as crunchy.
