About the Ingredients:
• Yellow Summer Squash-During off-season it is readily found in the frozen
vegetable section of most grocery stores.
• Onion-I prefer yellow or sweet onions.
• Butter-Salted or unsalted. It adds flavor and richness to this recipe.
• Shredded Cheese-I prefer a medium cheddar, but use what you have. Cheese gives an earthy flavor to this dish plus it's nutritious.
• Bread Stuffing-The crumb stuffing works best. Helps distribute the liquids and the many flavors.
• Eggs-Large or extra large. This is the binder for the ingredients, especially when combined with the stuffing.
• Milk-I prefer whole milk but use what you have. Milk gives a richer taste and
helps with browning.
• Sea Salt
• Black Pepper-Freshly ground if you have it.

Instructions
​
1. Place squash, onion, and butter in a large skillet over medium-high
heat; cover; cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Remove cover and cook until
there is no water remaining and mixture is just starting to brown; place in a
large bowl. Let cool slightly (don't want to scramble the eggs).
​
​
​​2. Mix cheese and bread stuffing in a medium bowl; stir half into squash
mixture.
​
3. Mix eggs and milk together in a small bowl; add to squash mixture and
​
​
spread into prepared baking dish; top with balance of cheese mixture.
​
​
​​4. Bake in preheated oven until nice and brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
