Three Dollar Café Squash Casserole

Hands on: 20 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Serves: 8

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 x 2 inch-baking dish. Set aside.

In a large saucepan over medium heat, bring water to a boil. Add squash and cook 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender. Drain.

While squash is cooking, in a medium skillet, melt butter and sauté onion over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, combine squash and sautéed onion. Stir in eggs, sugar, salt, chicken base, white pepper, breadcrumbs and cheddar cheese. Mix well. Pour into prepared baking dish. Top with American cheese. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until top is lightly browned and casserole is bubbling.
