This deserves a 9 on a scale of 1 to 5. We all loved it! I cut the recipe in half and used 2 eggs. Made it in the morning, keep it in the fridge, brought it to room temp and popped it in the oven 30 minutes before dinner. This is a keeper for sure -
This was nice. I think next time I'll kick it up a notch by adding some garlic & maybe some cayenne. A bit blander than we care for, but yummy, none-the-less. I think I'll also use Club-style crackers next time (buttery flavor) - this would probably change the flavor as well. Great side dish, though - for us 'non-squash' eaters, this went over well. (trying to get some veggie variety into our diet!!) Thanks for sharing! -
I saw your recommendation at the new place, 4fff's, and we loved it! Will definitely mske often as yellow squash just loves to grow in our yard. -
I used Ritz crackers instead of saltines. My 7-yr old son didn't like the sweet taste, but my husband and I both thought it was yummy! My son better get used to it cause I'm sure I'll make it again!
