This spicy cheese and ground beef casserole can be used as a side dish or a main course! Any type of squash or ground meat may be used. For winter squash, you may want to pre-cook in the microwave before frying in butter to speed the process.

2 tablespoons butter
3 yellow squash, sliced
1 pound lean ground beef
1 onion, chopped

2 eggs, beaten
