No Cheese Yellow Squash Casserole By Sharon Recipes

YELLOW SQUASH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• 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.
• 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.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned.

CHEESE & YELLOW SQUASH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Coat baking dish lightly with butter.
• Grate all the cheese, then save a small amount aside to sprinkle on top of the casserole.
• Cut the squash into medium thin slices, the onion in very thin slices.
• Cook squash/onion the following way: place cut squash and onion in a pan of cold water. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove from stove and drain well.
• Combine squash/onion with most of the shredded cheese, 1/2 stick of butter, 1 cup of seasoned bread crumbs. This will form a thick "pasty" mixture.
• Add 1 beaten egg (or substitute). If mixture is too runny, add a little more bread crumbs. If too dry, add a little milk.
• Add to mixture a heavy "dash" of Worcestershire, 1/2 to 1 tsp of sugar (to taste), a dash of Tabasco sauce, a good dash of garlic powder, then salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
• Spoon mixture into the buttered baking dish. Sprinkle top lightly with bread crumbs and the small amount of grated cheese that was set aside. Cut small amount of butter into a few thin slices and "dot" on top of casserole.
• Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving to "set" the casserole.
