How To Make squash casserole

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350. Place squash, suchinni, onion and about 2 tsp salt in pan with water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook 5 minutes. Drain well.
  • Step 2
    Stir together carrots, soup, sour cream and water chestnuts. Add additional salt to taste (about 1/2 tsp) in large bowl. Gently fold the cooked squash into the mixture.
  • Step 3
    Stir together the stuffing and melted butter. Spoon half of the stuffing into a lightly greased 13x9 baking dish. Spoon squash mixture over the stuffing; top with remaining stuffing.
  • Step 4
    Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. May need to cover with aluminum foil after the first 20 minutes of cooking to avoid over-browning. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving.
