This is that time of year I wish I had a backyard full of squash and zucchini {Big Sigh), but since I don’t I’m grateful for Kroger who has plenty and I envy you who have so much you don’t know what to do with it!  I love squash and zucchini and I love to cook it all different ways (such as oven fried).   Here’s a favorite for yellow squash.

Squash Bake

Ingredients:

4 cups yellow squash, cleaned, boiled, and smashed

1/4 cup onion, finely chopped

1 egg, beaten

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 cup Ritz cracker crumbs

1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Lightly grease a 1 quart casserole dish.  Combine all ingredients, but crackers and place in dish.  Sprinkle crushed crackers on top.

Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.

Simple and yummy!
