- 3 cup diced squash (your choice) about 1" cubes
- 1 medium yellow onion ( diced small)
- 1 clove garlic ( minced)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk

- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 20 Ritz crackers divided
- 1 salt and pepper to taste (i use seasoning salt)
- In a small bowl beat together eggs and milk.
- Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, saute squash and onion in olive oil until it starts to get fork tender.
- Around 5-10 minutes.
- Add garlic during the last 2 minutes.
- Salt and pepper to your taste.
- Remove from heat.
- Add egg mixture, cheese, butter,and ten crushed up Ritz crackers.
- Combine well.
- The residual heat should melt everything together.
- Pour into a buttered baking dish of your choice.
- I use a 9 " pie plate.
- Crush up remaining Ritz crackers and sprinkle evenly over the top.
- Bake at 350F for 30 minutes.
- Let cool for 10 minutes and serve.
- Enjoy.
- In my cover photo I used a mixture of yellow squash and zucchini.
- I would think butternut or acorn squash would work just as well.
- Even frozen squash from your grocer will work.
- I also use some bacon grease when I am sauteing the squash.
- You can't beat the extra smokey flavor it adds.
