This spicy cheese and ground beef casserole can be used as a side dish or a main course! Any type of squash or ground meat may be used. For winter squash, you may want to pre-cook in the microwave before frying in butter to speed the process.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
3 yellow squash, sliced
1 pound lean ground beef
1 onion, chopped
3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup crushed buttery round crackers

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute squash in butter until tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, and jalapeno, stirring until beef is evenly browned. Drain off grease. In a large bowl, mix together the squash, eggs, and mayonnaise. Stir in the ground beef mixture and Cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a 9x13 inch baking dish, and sprinkle cracker crumbs evenly over the top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until heated through, and the top is nicely browned.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my casserole turned out watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

This casserole is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably use less chili powder next time.
