How to Make Cheesy Squash Casserole
To make this Cheesy Squash Casserole, start by sauteing sliced squash, bell pepper, and onion in a large skillet. You want to cook it until it is nice and soft. Once the veggies are cooked transfer them to a strainer and press down to get all of the liquid out. Squash is very watery, you want to make sure to get as much of the liquid out as possible. Next, combine flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and eggs. Add the cooked squash mixture and the cheese. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and pop in the oven.
I used Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese in this casserole. Feel free to kick it up with some Pepper Jack cheese if you want to kick it up a bit. You can also add a can of diced green chiles. YUM!
Can Squash Casserole be Made in Advance & Frozen
You can make this Cheesy Squash Casserole ahead of time and refrigerate overnight or freeze for later. To bake after refrigerating, let the casserole dish sit on the counter for 30 minutes before baking. To bake after freezing, thaw the casserole completely and bake as directed below.
