SQUASH CASSEROLE
Standard Southern treatment for yellow squash - delicious comfort food. It takes one "sleeve" of saltine crackers to make up the 1 1/2 cups of crushed saltines - depending on how finely you crush them and pack them down this amount may vary a bit. The recipe form won't let me put in "one sleeve of saltines", but that is the amount to use. Some people like a lot of pepper in their squash - if you like things less spicy I'd stick with the 1/2 teaspoon amount.

Tips:
- To save time, use pre-shredded squash or butternut squash that has been roasted and peeled.
- If you don't have yellow squash on hand, you can substitute zucchini.
- For a creamier casserole, add an extra 1/2 cup of milk or cream.
- If you want a crispy topping, sprinkle the casserole with panko breadcrumbs or crushed crackers before baking.
- If your oven is too hot, the casserole may brown too quickly on top before the center is cooked through. To prevent this, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
