Squash Casserole Ala Grandma Recipe

Squash Casserole ala Grandma

From soozcee 16 years ago

This dish makes everyone a squash lover! The shrimp make it special, and it was a standard at all holiday meals growing up.

First, boil the squash in a good deal of salted water till tender. Drain, then mash with a potato masher till not quite smooth.
Meanwhile, cook the "holy trinity"--onion, celey, and bell pepper in canola oil over medium heat till celery is nearly tender. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Add the shrimp to the pan and cook just till shrimp are pink. Remove from heat.
Combine squash, shrimp mixture, creole seasoning, and bread crumbs. Mixture should not be dry.
Transfer to baking dish, dust with more bread crumbs and dot with butter.
Bake at 350 till bubbly and top is lightly browned.
