I got this delicious squash recipe from my MIL. It is 100% belly-rubbin' goodness. Works well in double portion too.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups cracker crumbs (saltine, ritz, or other)
1/4 cup butter (softened)
1 lb squash* (unpared and shredded)
1 1/2 tsp onion (chopped)
1 egg (beaten)
1 1/2 tsp salt**
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup cheddar cheese*** (shredded)
Instructions:
Mix crackers and butter (set aside 1/2 cup)
Mix cracker mixture with remaining ingredients and place in a 1 1/2 quart, greased casserole dish. Top with 1/2 cup cracker mix. Bake @350F approximately 1 hour.
* good with just zuccini, but I usually use a medley of squash types. My favorites are summer, 8-ball, and papaya pear.
** if the crackers are salted, I cut back on the salt.
*** other cheeses work well too. My favorite is pepper jack. That kicks it up a notch.

Yum, Yum! I can't wait to try it. Well, actually I can , because I'm still recovering from my five straight and I am NOT going out to the store tonight! In fact, now that I've fed the critters, I think it's time to go back to drooling on my pillow! LOL

Well, I never measure or follow recipes exactly. So if you use low fat shredded cheese, and cut the butter in half it should work just fine. I didn't use as much cracker crumbs or butter as Martina called for, and you don't need to put the crackers on top. I did use two beaten eggs though, and it made it kinda souffle like. It's nummy!!! But not letting him have any works too! LOL
