Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (sliced) yellow squash
- 1 medium (chopped) yellow onion
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 cups (crumbled) cornbread
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 large (beaten) eggs
- 1 teaspoon (optional) sage
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup (shredded, optional) cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced yellow squash and chopped onion, and sauté for 8–10 minutes, or until the squash is tender and the onion is translucent.
While the squash mixture cooks, crumble the cornbread into a large mixing bowl.
Remove the skillet from heat and pour the squash and onion mixture into the bowl with the cornbread. Stir gently to combine.
Add the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, chicken broth, beaten eggs, sage (if using), black pepper, and salt to the bowl. Mix well until fully combined.
If desired, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese for added richness.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dressing is set in the center.
Let the dressing cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
