Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

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

Steps:

  • 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.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and crackers are lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

MAMA'S SQUASH



Mama's squash image

Talk about comfort food, this suits me right down to the ground. I would like to say Mama developed this recipe just for me but I doubt it and she's been gone since I was 18. There are just some things that are so identified by that invisible little golden chain between a person and their parents...and each of those little links...

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 medium yellow crooked/straight neck summer squash
3 Tbsp butter
1/4 c half and half or heavy whipping cream
1+ Tbsp sugar
salt to taste
pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cut squash into thick slices, then into 4 -6 pieces. Place in pan with 2-3 inches of water. Boil until very tender. (Covering pan with lid and steam/boiling them will speed the process). Drain off water. Push the squash a bit to push out a bit more water.
  • 2. Mash squash with a potato masher until squash is mashed but still has some small pieces. Add butter, cream and seasonings, to taste. Return to a lower heat and cook until liquid is well incorporated.
  • 3. Notes: Summer squash has a sweetness all its own, so taste before adding too much sugar. The fresher the squash the less sugar is needed. You can also use the frozen yellow squash slices from the grocery, its not as good as fresh but hey in winter... when you need a taste of home. Most children will eat this every time if you can get them to taste it once.

  • Cook the two spaghetti squash. To do this, I wash the outside with water and vinegar, cut in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, and place cut-side down on a well-greased baking sheet (I grease my baking/cookie sheet with expeller-pressed coconut oil). Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Remove the strands of squash with a fork.
  • While the squash is cooking, cook and shred the chicken. I put my chicken pieces in boiling water and let them cook/boil for about 30 minutes. Then I remove them from the water, cool, and shred with two forks. You can also cut the chicken with kitchen shears to make smaller pieces.
  • As you're waiting for the squash and chicken to finish cooking, make a sauce using the cream cheese, sour cream, butter, 2 cups of the cheddar cheese, chicken broth, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Depending on the size of your squash, decide how much chicken broth to use. You want it to be a soupy consistency, but not too watery. 4 1/2 cups has been just about right for me, but it depends on what you like and how big the squash are.
