Description
This is a wonderful, cheese-enhanced squash casserole that my husband makes from memory of his mother’s recipe.
Ingredients
- 8 yellow summer squash, thinly sliced
- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 cup low-fat sour cream
- 1 sleeve buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®), crushed, divided
- 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 1-quart casserole dish.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add squash and onion
- cover
- and steam until squash is tender and easily mashed with a fork
- 10 to 15 minutes.
- Whisk egg and sour cream together in the prepared casserole dish; add squash
- onions
- 2/3 the crackers
- and 2/3 the Cheddar cheese. Stir with a fork. Cover the squash mixture with remaining Cheddar cheese and crackers.
