Ingredients

  • 6 cups large diced yellow squash and zucchini
  • Vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon House seasoning, recipe follows
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup crushed butter crackers (recommended: Ritz)

Directions

Saute the squash in a little vegetable oil over medium-low heat until it has completely broken down, about 15 to 20 minutes. Line a colander with a clean tea towel. Place the cooked squash in the lined colander. Squeeze excess moisture from the squash. Set aside.

In a medium size skillet, saute the onion in butter for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and mix all ingredients together except cracker crumbs. Pour mixture into a buttered casserole dish and top with cracker crumbs. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.

House Seasoning:

  • 1 cup salt
  • 1/4 cup black pepper

    I love this so much, I know it is fattening but it tastes so good ... I tweaked it a little, I add bacon pieces to it. My husband and I love it, but I eat most of it. I also do not use house seasoning, I figure there is enough salt in the cheese and bacon already. I also boil/steam my squash instead of pan cooking them, and I use mixed cheeses too (white and cheddar.

    I have made this casserole several times including Thanksgiving and Christmas day dinners...super easy, travels well. I use 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder rather than making up a big batch of spice...so technically I use more that Paula calls for - I also use fat free sour cream, 2% cheese and cooking spray rather than any butter, oil, etc...still delicious, no one suspects it is a little lower in fat. I highly recommend.
