This is a great and delicious way to use summer squash. Makes a nice presentation, especially if you top it with a small amount of chopped green onions (green part only), or a little sprinkling of sweet paprika. It is also a prep-ahead dish, if you wish, which makes it so convenient. It is so good - hope you like it as much as our family does. Ingredients:
1 lb large summer squash (if you can't find large ones, then use more smaller ones so the filling won't spill out) |
1/2 cup green pepper, finely chopped |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup sweet onion, finely minced |
5 slices bacon, cooked and finely crumbled |
Directions:
1. Cook squash in boiling water 10-12 minutes. Let cool a little and then slice lengthwise. Scoop out pulp.
2. Add remaining ingredients to pulp and mix well. Fill squash with mixture, and then place each squash half in a baking dish.
3. Bake 20 minutes in a 350 degree preheated oven.
4. Note: May be prepared up to 3 hours ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake.
