Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups (sliced) yellow squash
- 1 cup (diced) onion
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups (shredded) sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup (grated) parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
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 diced onion, and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the sharp cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese.
Gently fold the cooked squash and onion mixture into the bowl with the cheesy egg mixture until everything is evenly combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with olive oil until evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling around the edges and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
