Ingredients

Yellow squash 3 Pound

Cream of mushroom soup/Chicken soup 10 Ounce
Mayonnaise 1 Cup (16 tbs)
Egg 1
Shredded cheddar cheese 8 Ounce
Salt 1 Teaspoon
Fresh ground black pepper 1/2 Teaspoon
Ritz crackers 2 Packet
Melted butter 4 Ounce

Directions

GETTING READY:

1. Preheat oven to 350.

MAKING:

2. Wash and slice squash into small medallions or dice into smaller pieces if the squash is large. I prefer smaller sized squash since it is tender. Put squash into a large bowl for mixing with the filling.

3. In a separate bowl, mix together the soup, mayo, eggs, cheese, onions, salt, and pepper.

4. Pour over squash.Stir until well mixed.

5. Then pour into a casserole dish for baking.

6. Crush crackers while in "tubes" (I usually wrap them in a dish towel to avoid a mess, and use a rolling pin or meat tenderizer) or place in a resealable plastic bag.

7. Pour crushed crackers into a bowl. Melt butter in the microwave and stir into crackers until moist.

8. Drizzle on top of casserole. (You can make more or less of the topping. More topping = more yummy!)

9. Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly and brown on top (usually 45-50 minutes). Bake for 30 minutes covered. with foil to help prevent crackers from burning.

10. Then uncover and bake an additional 20 minutes until golden brown on top.

SERVING:

11. Serve and Enjoy!
