YELLOW SQUASH AND CORN CASSEROLE
Steps:
- In a covered, microwave-safe dish, cook the yellow squash and onion in the water until its just tender, about 7 minutes. You can perform this step in a steamer, if you wish. Preheat the over to 350. While the squash is cooking, open the can of corn and drain the liquid into a blender. Add 1/2 cup of the corn and the corn starch to the blender, and puree until smooth. When the squash is tender, add the blended corn mixture, the remaining corn, the oregano, black pepper, and salt to taste, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the top with bread crumbs, if desired. Bake, uncovered, in the oven until top is brown and casserole is bubbly, about 20-25 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right squash: For this casserole, yellow squash is the best choice. It has a mild flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients and holds its shape well during cooking.
- Grate the squash: Grating the squash helps it cook evenly and makes the casserole more cohesive.
- Use fresh corn: Fresh corn gives the casserole a sweet and juicy flavor. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn that has been thawed.
- Don't overcook the casserole: The casserole is done when the squash and corn are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Overcooking will make the casserole dry and tough.
- Serve hot: This casserole is best served hot out of the oven. You can garnish it with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream.
Conclusion:
This yellow squash and corn casserole is a delicious and easy side dish that's perfect for any occasion. It's made with simple ingredients and can be ready in under an hour. The casserole is creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. It's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
