Delicious delicious southern squash casserole recipe recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds yellow squash, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 can (10.75 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Step 2: Steam or boil the sliced squash until tender-crisp. Drain very well, pressing out excess moisture.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the cooked squash, chopped onion, melted butter, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well.
  4. Step 4: Pour the squash mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
  5. Step 5: In a small bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers and the 2 tablespoons of melted butter for the topping. Sprinkle evenly over the squash mixture.
  6. Step 6: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. Let stand for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftover casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat individual portions in the microwave or bake covered in a low oven until warmed through.
  • This casserole is a fantastic side dish for fried chicken, pulled pork, or grilled ham.
  • For an extra cheesy flavor and golden crust, broil the casserole for the last minute, watching carefully to prevent burning.
