Squash Casserole

50 min | 20 min prep
SERVES 10

Ingredients:
1 lb cooked squash, mashed
1 large onion, chopped (I use onion flakes)
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup butter (I don't use as much butter)
2 eggs, separated
1/2 cup milk
8-10 crackers, finely crumbled
salt & pepper

Directions:
1.Cook squash and onion until tender; drain.
2.Mash until fine.
3.Add salt, pepper, cheese, butter, egg yolks, milk and crackers.
4.(I have just added onion flakes to this mixture instead of cooking the onion and squash together. Just personal preference.) Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.
5.Pour into buttered casserole; bake at 350 degrees, until brown and firm (about 30 minutes).
6.Serve hot.
