A really great way to use up all that extra yellow crookneck squash, even the big ones (and zucchini too) without the usual egg dip, cornmeal dredge and pan frying. My husband HATES casseroles and loved this, plus, he thought there was meat in it. Read more *L* Thanks to that, I learned you can add some shredded or diced chicken and you have a meal! (It's also a great way to use squash you may have frozen or canned) See less

How to make it
- Scrub the squash, cut off stem and blossom end.
- Cut in half from end to end.
- Scoop out seeds and cube squash into chunks. (you can leave the seeds if you like, but our household can't eat them)
- In heavy pan or skillet over medium-low heat, add oil and butter.
- Add the squash and onion, a little salt and pepper. Cover and stir occasionally until well softened. (soft enough to mash with a fork but not fall apart on their own.. sort of al denté) Do NOT brown the squash or onion.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool enough so egg won't cook when added. While it is cooling, mix remaining ingredients stirring well. Add the squash/onion mixture, stirring just enough to mix and pour into greased/sprayed 2 quart casserole dish or 9x9 pan, top with reserved bread crumbs and cheese.
- Bake uncovered at 350 for about 20-25 mins until top is golden brown.
