My mom and dad gave me some squash fresh from the garden yesterday. I took it home, sliced it up, steamed it and made a Baked Squash - Southern Style casserole. Now, I've made this casserole before, but I really must have done something right because my hubby went back for seconds! And if you know him...he's pretty picky about his food. Here's the recipe:
Baked Squash - Southern Style
2 - 10 oz packages of frozen yellow summer squash (or use fresh like I did)
1 TBS minced onion flakes
2 TBS + 2 TSP low cal margarine (I used butter)
2 egg whites (I used one egg)
1 1/2 TSP sweetener (I used sugar)
1/2 TSP salt
1/8 TSP pepper
3 TBS dry bread crumbs
Cook squash according to package instructions. Drain. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place squash in large bowl and mash well. Add onion flakes, 2 TBS margarine, egg whites, sugar, salt, pepper and 1/2 of the bread crumbs. Mix well. Pour mixture into a 1 qt baking dish that has been sprayed with a nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with remaining bread crumbs.
Dot with remaining margarine.
Bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until set and lightly browned.
Each serving provides:
90 calories
1/4 bread serving 4 grams protein
2 veggie servings 4 grams fat
1 fat serving 10 grams carbs
10 additional calories* 426 mg sodium
0 mg cholesterol
*Add 6 calories if sugar or fructose is used as sweetener.
Enjoy!
