SQUASH CASSEROLE, GRANDMA'S WAY

Steps:

• 1. Cook squash and onions till squash is cooked down and done. (For those unfamiliar with how to cook the squash.....place it in a pot with the onion and salt and pepper, and just do cover with water and bring to a boil, then cut down the heat to simmer until squash is tender, not mushy.) Strain off excess water.
• 2. Using 9 x 11 casserole dish, butter sides and bottom of dish. Start layering ingredients, beginning with Squash, (add a little salt and pepper to squash prior to placing in casserole dish, if needed) add a layer of cheese, mix together the milk and cream of mushroom soup, and spread it evenly over the cheese, repeat these layers again, then crumble a pack of the Ritz crackers and generously cover top of soup mixture. Dab top of crackers with a few pats of butter.
• 3. Place in a 350 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes, until golden brown or until it starts to bubble and boil a little around the edges. (You just really want to melt the cheese, and heat it through and maybe brown the top a little) Serve warm or let stand for a few minutes before serving with your favorite meal.

• 4. Pour over squash.
• 5. Stir until well mixed.

• 8. Pour crushed crackers into a bowl. Melt butter in the microwave and stir into crackers until moist.
• 9. Drizzle on top of casserole. (You can make more or less of the topping. More topping = more yummy!)
