What You'll Need

  • 2 pounds (about 7) yellow summer squash, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Golden Squash Casserole Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large saucepan, add squash with enough water to cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook 8 to 10 minutes, or just until squash is tender. Drain well.
  3. In a large bowl, combine squash, 1/2 cup cheese, mayonnaise, egg substitute, salt, and pepper. Spoon into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  4. Bake 30 minutes, or until golden and heated through.

This is "NOT" for the squmish

I have made this many times, I just use regular ingredients. I add onion and diced green pepper with the squash. I also add a small can of sliced water chestnuts. That adds a nice crunch. I add a topping of crushed Ritz crackers (one sleeve) and dot with butter before baking. My favorite!

Sounds very yummy. Plan to make soon

I have a similar recipe. Add about one half chopped green pepper to the squash when you boil it. If you like green pepper (which I normally don't but LOVE it in this squash) then add some. I also add a little chopped onion when boiling. We ALWAYS have this at Thanksgiving!!

Golden squash casserole is delicious

Golden squash casserole is delicious

Please give a brief description, instead of Casserole #1, #2, etc., or Dessert #1, #2, etc. It is very time consuming to open the recipe before knowing if you'd even be interested in making it! Thank you!

do you peel the squash ?

I wouldn't think so....you don't need to peel the squash as the skin of summer squash is very tender. Same with zucchini which would be a good alternative to use

No, you don't peel the squash. Summer squash does not need peeling. :)

Can I use eggs instead of egg substitute? If so how many eggs would I need? Can zucchini be used instead of yellow squash?

Yes,you can use regular eggs. 1/4 cup egg substitute equals one egg, so you'll need 2.

Hello! Yes, you can use 2 eggs instead of egg substitute, and you can use zucchini instead of summer squash if you prefer. Enjoy!

very good

Thank you so much for your diabetic friendly dishes. I love yellow squash. I definitely will try it this weekend.
