Squash Casserole

Ingredients

4 cups sliced yellow squash
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup water, or more as needed
35 buttery round crackers, crushed
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 large eggs, beaten
¾ cup milk
¼ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish; set aside.

Place squash, onion, and water in a large skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook until squash is tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl.

Mix cracker crumbs and cheese together in a separate bowl. Stir half of the cracker mixture into cooked squash mixture.

Mix eggs and milk together in a small bowl, then add to squash mixture; stir in 1/4 cup melted butter, and season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Sprinkle with remaining cracker mixture, and dot with 2 tablespoons butter.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top and set, about 25 minutes.

Serve hot and enjoy!
