Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put a large colander inside a large bowl.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add a third of the squash to the skillet, arrange in a single layer and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the squash begins to soften and are golden brown spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the colander. Repeat 2 more times using 2 tablespoons of butter for each batch and sprinkling with 1/2 teaspoon salt and few grinds of pepper. Transfer each batch to the colander.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet along with the pepper and onion and cook, stirring occasionally scraping up any brown bits, until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Let cool for 5 minutes then fold into the squash. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Whisk together the sour cream, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Fold in the Cheddar, thyme and chives. Pour over the squash making sure that some of the mixture sinks down to the bottom.
- Microwave the remaining tablespoon of butter in a medium bowl until melted. Fold in the crackers and hot sauce. Sprinkle evenly over the squash. Bake until the eggs are cooked through and the crackers are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN & SQUASH CASSEROLE
Adapted from a recipe in one of my books. This is a great autumn/winter casserole - very tasty and ever so healthy! I've given the directions for cooking in the oven but this can easily be done in a crock pot as well - just follow steps 2 and 3 and fling it all in the crock pot, cooking on low for 8 hours.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 190c.
- Chop everything up - the chicken and onion, cube the squash and slice the carrotts. If you're using the cashews chop these up as well.
- Using some 1 cal spray (or olive oil if you prefer), brown the chicken and soften the onion, squash and carrot for approximately 5 minutes.
- Transfer into a casserole dish, add the sage and stock cube. Fill with water until everything is nearly covered.
- Cook in the oven for 45mins to an hour or until everything is cooked and tender.
- Stir through half the nuts (if using).
- Plate up and garnish with remaining nuts.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh summer squash. If you can't find summer squash, you can substitute zucchini or yellow squash.
- To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- If you don't have a baking dish, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven instead.
- Serve the casserole hot with a side of rice or pasta.
Conclusion:
Summer squash chicken casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this summer squash chicken casserole a try.
