DELICIOUS & HEALTHY, 4 INGREDIENT SQUASH CASSEROLE



Delicious & Healthy, 4 Ingredient Squash Casserole image

My mother always made a heavenly squash casserole when I was growing up. This is my trimmed-down version that's super-easy to make and never dissapoints on taste. In the summer my husband and I eat this at least once a week and it's nearly guilt-free! I use 2% sharp cheddar and turkey bacon, but feel free to go full fat with some of the ingredients.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs zucchini and yellow squash
2 ½ Tablespoon olive oil
1 ¼ teaspoon salt divided
½ teaspoon pepper
⅓ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 small onion (finely diced)
4 Tablespoon Butter
3 cloves garlic (minced)
⅓ cup Panko breadcrumbs (I used gluten-free)
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
2 Tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or melted butter.
  • Cut zucchini and yellow squash into thin ¼-inch slices. Sprinkle ½ teaspoon salt over the zucchini and squash slices. Let sit for 10 -15 minutes and then dab to remove excess moisture with a paper towel.
  • Melt 4 Tbsp butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute for 4-5 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add salt and black pepper.
  • Alternating, overlap the zucchini and squash slices in rows in the prepared baking dish. Season squash with salt and freshly ground black pepper and drizzle sauteed onion over layered squash.
  • Layer another layer of zucchini and summer squash on top. In a small bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, and garlic powder. Toss to combine and then sprinkle over the second layer of zucchini and squash.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes. When done, serve immediately with fresh chopped parsley and enjoy!
