Squish *I mean* Squash Casserole

So, probably my all-time favorite casserole that my grandmother makes is her Squash Casserole. It's surprisingly easy and while I wouldn't call it "heirloom" material (that is to say, I'm not sure Nanny learned it from her family) it is something special that will always remind me of dinner at Nanny's. I'm pretty sure this is just an awesome concoction that Nanny came up with on her own... because she pretty much rocks the kitchen.

Squash Casserole

You'll need:
Fresh summer squash
1 small yellow onion
1-2 tablespoons butter
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
a little bit of flour
salt and pepper
1 egg
Herb Stuffing Mix
Greased Casserole Dish

Slice the squash into 1/4" slices and chop the onion. Boil the squash and onions with the butter until tender. Drain well and cool slightly.

In a bowl, mix the squash and onions with the soup, a bit of flour, and the egg. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Put a light layer of stuffing mix in the bottom of your greased casserole dish and then place the squash mixture on top. Top the casserole with stuffing mix and dot with butter.

Bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown.

mmmm!! I usually make 3 small casseroles, and, learning from observation, freeze 2 and eat one. The casserole freezes REALLY well. :)

PS: the term "squish" is in honor of my best friend and all the fun we have cooking, frying, and eating squish. :)
