Yellow Squash Casserole With Shrimp image

The amount of Ritz crackers to use is one sleeve, but the Recipezaar brain doesn't understand that measurement. It comes out to about a cup when I crush them up using my Cuisinart.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs yellow squash, sliced
1 large white onion, sliced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 lb Velveeta cheese, cubed
1/2 cup milk
1 cup small cooked shrimp
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup Ritz cracker crumbs
Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place squash and onion in a large pot. Add 1/4 cup of water. Cover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the squash is no longer white and hard in the center - this usually takes about 10 minutes, but could take longer if your squash slices are very thick. Drain the squash well.
  • While squash is cooking, put butter, Velveeta and milk in a microwave safe bowl. Cover bowl loosely with waxed paper and microwave on high, stopping to stir mixture every 30 seconds or so.
  • When butter and velveeta are melted, remove bowl from microwave.
  • Mix together well-drained squash, cheese mixture, shrimp, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Ritz cracker crumbs, and add Tabasco to taste.
  • You may top with breadcrumbs or additional cracker crumbs if you like.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
