Southern Squash Casserole

Ingredients

  • 3 lb yellow squash, sliced
  • 1/2 cup diced Vidalia onion, optional
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 egg
  • 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • TOPPING
  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 1 stick melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Wash and slice squash into small medallions or dice into smaller pieces of the squash is large. I prefer smaller sized squash since it is tender. Put squash into a large bowl for mixing with the filling.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the soup, mayo, eggs, cheese, onions, salt, and pepper. Pour over squash. Stir until well mixed. Then pour into a casserole dish for baking.
  • Crush crackers in a resealable plastic bag. Melt butter in the microwave and stir into crackers until moist.
  • Drizzle on top of casserole.
  • Bake at 350°F until bubbly and brown on top (usually 45-50 minutes). Bake for 30 minutes covered with foil to help prevent crackers from burning. Then uncover and bake an additional 20 minutes until golden brown on top.
