Tender squash, gooey cheese and crunchy crackers make this a memorable side dish or a hearty main course. This is a great dish that can be made with low-fat ingredients and is still just as good! Ingredients:
4 cups sliced yellow squash |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
35 buttery round crackers, crushed |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
2 eggs, beaten |
3/4 cup milk |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1 teaspoon salt |
ground black pepper to taste |
2 tablespoons butter |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). 2. Place squash and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in a small amount of water. Cover, and cook until squash is tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well, and place in a large bowl. 3. In a medium bowl, mix together cracker crumbs and cheese. Stir half of the cracker mixture into the cooked squash and onions. In a small bowl, mix together eggs and milk, then add to squash mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter, and season with salt and pepper. Spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cracker mixture, and dot with 2 tablespoons butter. 4. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned. |
