Steps to make Simply Delicious Squash Casserole:
  1. In a small bowl beat together eggs and milk. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute squash and onion in olive oil until it starts to get fork tender. Around 20-25 minutes. Add garlic during the last 2 minutes. Salt and pepper to your taste. Remove from heat.
  3. Add egg mixture, cheese, butter,and ten crushed up Ritz crackers. Combine well. The residual heat should melt everything together. Pour into a buttered baking dish of your choice. I use a 9 " pie plate.
  4. Crush up remaining Ritz crackers and sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve. Enjoy.
  5. In my cover photo I used a mixture of yellow squash and zucchini. I would think butternut or acorn squash would work just as well. Even frozen squash from your grocer will work. I also use some bacon grease when I am sautéing the squash. You can't beat the extra smokey flavor it adds.

Mixed with the savory cheese and soup it's the perfect combination. I am always looking for a great side dish in the summer. Actually, I am always looking for great side dish recipes all year long.
