Squash Casserole ( Gamma's Southern style)

We always had an abundance of summer squash - which my grandmother(Gamma) HATED! But as a child of the great depression- she never wasted ANYTHING...So she devised all sorts of ways to make squash so that the taste was somewhat disguised. Her version used more cheese & Butter- and less squash- and she mashed it so that it was more of a souffle- but I LIKE the taste of squash and didn't want all the Fat from the butter and cheese. So I decided to make it in an updated more healthy version that's still good for finicky eaters! ( Even my husband approved) :) Gamma's version became a holiday staple right next to the sweet potato souffle( LOL)

WHen squash mixture is tender- drain liquid as well as you can( I just use a slotted spoon to scoop it out of the pan and allow the liquid to drain spoonful by spoonful) - add to casserole dish and stir well. Cook uncovered at 350 on oven for 30 minutes- mixture will be set overall but might still have a slight jiggle it will also show bubbles throughout. Sprinkle bread crumbs over top- spray with cooking spray to allow browning and cook an additional 10 minutes. Whatever is left over- just throw on the cover and refrigerate. ** also wonderful to mix in with scrambled eggs for a tasty breakfast treat the next day!Serving Size:?makes 6 GENEROUS servings or 8 smaller servings.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BIGOLEDIVA.
