Ingredients:

  • 4 cups yellow squash (sliced)
  • 1/2 onion (chopped)
  • 35 buttery round crackers (crushed)
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 2 eggs (beaten)
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of butter

When picking the squash, choose the smaller ones as they will be more tender, have a sweeter flavor, and have fewer seeds.

Instructions:

Step 1:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2:

Get a large skillet and bring the heat to medium. Place squash and onion then pour a small amount of water. Cover with the lid and cook until squash is tender for 5 minutes. The natural sugar of the squash comes out in this process. Once done, drain well and place in a large bowl.
