How To Make summer squash casserole

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9 X 13 baking dish with cooking spray, set aside.

Step 2

Wash and slice summer squash and place into a large saucepan or dutch oven. Add onion and cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until just tender about 10 to15 minutes (not soft and mushy). Pour into a strainer and remove as much water as possible.
Step 3

In a large bowl, mix together soup, mayonnaise, cheese, egg, and salt. Gently fold in squash and onion and spoon into prepared casserole dish.
Step 4

In another bowl, combine stuffing mix with 1/2 cup melted butter. Sprinkle over squash mixture.
Step 5

Cover with foil and bake for about 30 minutes and then remove foil. Continue to bake for about 10 to 15 minutes until topping is browned and casserole is bubbly. Serve as a side dish with your favorite meat dish.
