Found in my grandmother's shoebox of clipped recipes. She had a number of vegetable bakes - all a little faded and some with handwritten notes. This one had Peggy's favorite! written across the bottom. I have no idea who Peggy is or was - but she evidently really liked this one. Ingredients:
1 lb summer squash |
1 cup onion, finely grated |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1/4 cup light cream |
2 tablespoons melted butter |
1 egg, slightly beaten |
1 dash nutmeg |
salt and pepper |
1/2 cup cracker crumb |
paprika |
Directions:
1. Cook squash in a small amount of water.
2. Drain and add onion, cheese, cream, butter, egg, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
3. Mix all together and put in a greased 1 1/2 quart casserole.
4. Sprinkle with cracker crumbs and paprika.
5. Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes, or until mixture bubbles and top is brown.
