Squash Casserole

This is one of the favorite vegetable casseroles recipes in our family. Like several of my recipes, to make more (or less) feel free to change the amounts of the ingredients. Don't worry, you really can't mess this up. (If you like squash, that is!)

fresh yellow squash (for a decent amount, use at least 6)
4 T butter
1/2 diced onion
1 t salt
1/2 pepper
1 beaten egg
1/2 sleeve saltine crackers - crushed
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese

Slice and boil squash for about 10 minutes. Drain. Add the butter. Mash the squash and butter with a potato masher. Add onion, salt, pepper, beaten egg and 1/2 cracker crumbs and 1/2 of the shredded cheddar. Stir together. Pour into casserole dish and top with the remaining cracker crumbs and cheese. Bake approx 45 minutes at 350F until golden and bubbly!

This picture is an uncooked casserole. I'll add a picture of the finished product next week.
