Categories     Side Dishes

Time 1h19m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 to 7 c. sliced summer squash (1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices)
1/4 to 1/2 c. chopped onion
1 c. shredded carrot
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can cream of chicken soup
1 c. sour cream
4 c. herb seasoned stuffing mix (about 2/3 of a 12 oz. package)
1/2 c. unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add sliced summer squash and onion. Starting to time as soon as the squash and onion are added to the pot, cook for 5 minutes. Drain well.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Stir in carrot.
  • Fold in drained summer squash and onion.
  • In a separate bowl, combine stuffing mix and melted butter.
  • Spread half of stuffing mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan coated with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Spoon summer squash mixture on top of the stuffing layer. Sprinkle remaining stuffing mix evenly on top of squash layer.
  • Bake at 350℉ for 25-30 minutes until the edges are bubbly and the stuffing mix is golden brown.
  • When cooking the summer squash and onion, don't worry about the pot coming back to a boil -- just cook it for the 5 minutes. If you wait for the pot to boil, you'll end up with very mushy overcooked squash.
  • You can substitute zucchini, or use a combination of both zucchini and summer squash for this dish.
