Ingredients
4 cups yellow squash, sliced
1.5 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
0.75 cups sour cream
0.5 cup mayonnaise
0.5 cup butter, melted
1 cup Ritz crackers, crushed
1 medium onion, diced
1 tsp salt
0.5 tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large saucepan, cook sliced squash and diced onion in lightly salted boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cheddar cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, and melted butter.
- Add the cooked squash and onion to the cheese mixture and gently stir to combine.
- Spread mixture evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Top with crushed Ritz crackers.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Notes
For extra flavor, add fresh herbs like thyme or parsley.
Swap Ritz crackers with panko breadcrumbs for a different texture.
Add cooked chicken for a heartier version.
Drain squash and onions thoroughly to prevent a watery casserole.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
