easy squash casserol

[Guest guest]

Our garden is brimming over and I thought I would share my favorite squash casserole recipe. (this is lacto ovo) Not a crockpot recipe, but an easy pop it in the oven and let it cook.

 

2 cups cooked squash

3/4 stick of butter or margarine

2 eggs

1 tsp pepper + salt to taste

1 cup chopped onions

1 cup shredded cheese

1 cup milk

2 cups cracker crumbs

 

Mash the squash. Add all ingredients and mix well. Pour into greased 1 quart casserole dish. Bake at 375 for about 40 minutes.

 

This is what I do:

I cook a large batch of squash with onions. I season them to suit my taste and freeze them in 2 to 3 cup sized servings.

I thaw them overnight in the frig and then mix casserole next evening. Very good and it gives me a taste of summer in winter.

 

This works well with combinations too. I've combined white squash, yellow crookneck squash, zucchini and shredded carrot for a great casserole.

I use whatever cheese I have on hand.
