Yellow Squash Casserole

We have LOTS of squash these days so I figured I would help everyone out with a great recipe to use up all their squash!

Ingredients:
4 cups sliced, yellow squash
1/2 cup chopped onion
35 buttery, round crackers, crushed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. salt
Black pepper to taste
2 tbsp. butter

1.  Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2.  Sautee squash and onion over medium heat.  Add a few tbsp. of water and cover until the squash are tender, about 5 minutes.  Drain well and place in large bowl.
3.  In medium bowl, mix cracker crumbs and cheese.  Stir 1/2 of cracker mixture into cooked squash and onions.  In small bowl, mix together eggs and milk , then add squash to mixture.  Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter, season with salt and pepper.  Spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish.  Sprinkle remaining cracker mixture and dot with 2 tbsp. butter.
4.  Bake 20-30 minutes.  Some like the casserole a little drier than others.

* Side note: I like bacon so I add cooked bacon to the squash and onion part of the recipe.  I also like fresh minced garlic and add that too.  We like a little kick to our foods so of course Tony's is added to the seasonings also.  Definitely not low fat but you could modify the recipe to make it as "healthy" as you like.  If I'm going to get my husband to eat it, it has to have some kick to it!
