  1. Aunt Fannies Squash Casserole Yellow Squash Casserole Yellow
    Squash Casserole Grandmaws Squash Pudding

    Here are some yellow squash recipe I have. Those not labeled
    I have tried and make often.

    Aunt Fannies Squash Casserole

    3 pounds summer squash
    1/2 cup onions, chopped
    2/2 cup butter, melted 2 large eggs, beaten
    3/2 cup saltine crumbs 1 teaspoon salt
    4/2 teaspoon black pepper Saltine crumbs

    Wash squash, cut in half lengthwise, then in 1/4-inch
    slices. Combine with chopped onion and cook in water to
    barely cover until both are tender. Drain thoroughly,
    pressing out excess water with back of spoon. Mash squash
    and onion with potato masher. Mix with half the butter, the
    cracker crumbs, eggs, sugar, to taste, salt and pepper. Pour
    into greased casserole dish. Pour remaining butter on top
    and sprinkle with additional cracker crumbs. Bake at 375
    degrees for 45 to 60 minutes, or until top is golden brown
    and bubbly. Yields: 6 servings

    Note: This recipe is from a restaurant in Smyrna, Georgia
    called Aunt Fannie's Cabin. Aunt Fannie was a freed
    slave of an old Georgia family who remained with the
    family until her death. The menu at the Cabin
    represented many of the dishes that Aunt Fannie
    prepared for the family. A most unique place and this
    recipe is very good as I have eaten there several
    times. My wife's parents liver in Smyrna and when we
    visited them they took us to eat there.

    Yellow Squash Casserole

    Not TnT

    2 cup yellow squash, cooked and mashed
    1/2 cup butter, melted, divided 1 teaspoon salt
    2/8 to 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
    3/4 cup to 1/2 cup peeled and chopped Vidalia or sweet
    type onion
    4/4 cup to 1 cup saltine cracker crumbs or crushed potato
    chips 2 large eggs, beaten

    In a heavy saucepan, cook onion with half the melted
    butter, salt and black pepper. Add squash. Stir to combine.
    Reduce heat to low. Cover with lid. Cook until tender. Add
    very little water and ONLY if needed. Squash has water in
    it. Keep the lid on it. When done, mash squash. Do NOT
    drain. Mix with half of the cracker crumbs or potato chips
    and the beaten eggs. Pour into a greased 2 quart casserole.
    Sprinkle with remaining crumbs or chips. Drizzle with rest
    of melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
    Yields: 8 servings.

    Yellow Squash Casserole Not TnT

    Note: This is a good way to use your yellow summer squash.

    2 yellow summer squash 1 large egg 10 saltine crackers
    crushed 3 tablespoons butter melted 8 oz shredded cheddar
    cheese 1\2 cup milk Salt and pepper to taste.

    Preheat oven to 350 degree. Clean and take the ends off
    squash. Slice and put in a pan of water and boil until
    fork tender. Drain squash and the mash it. Whip your egg
    in the milk and pour on mashed squash. Add the rest of
    ingredients and stir all together. Put in buttered
    casserole dish and bake for 1 hour. You can adjust this
    recipe to your serving sizes.

    Grandmaws Squash Pudding

    2 cups cooked yellow squash Water to parsley cover squash
    1/2 teaspoon
    2/2 cup sugar 2 large eggs
    3/4 cup sugar
    4/2 cup milk
    5/4 teaspoon salt
    6/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 2 tablespoons cornstarch 2
    tablespoons milk 1 1/2 tablespoons butter or margarine
    7/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1 tablespoon sugar

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cut up squash into a
    saucepan with a lid. Add water and salt, cook stirring
    occasionally until very tender. Mash enough squash to make 2
    cups. To squash mixture add 1/2 cup sugar, stir well. Set
    aside. Slightly beat eggs add remaining, sugar, milk, salt,
    and vanilla. Beat until well blended, set aside. Dissolve
    cornstarch into remaining milk mix with squash mixture. Then
    mix in egg mixture. Spray a 13x 9x 2 baking dish with
    cooking spray. Pour squash mixture into baking dish, dot
    with butter. Mix cinnamon and sugar together. Sprinkle this
    mixture over top of pudding. Bake in preheated oven for
    about 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in center comes
    out clean.

    Note: Mom has an easier way to do this and it work well.
    Place cooked squash into the bowl of a food
    processor. Add 1 1/4 cups sugar and pulse machine
    once or twice. Add eggs, the milk, salt, and vanilla
    pulse once or twice again. Mix the cornstarch with
    the 2 tablespoons milk, mixing well. Add this to the
    processor and blend until well mixed. Then continue
    as the above recipe says.

    Hope you enjoy these recipes. Terry S.
