SLAP YOUR MAMA IT'S SO DELICIOUS SOUTHERN SQUASH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350.

• 4. Pour over squash.
• 5. Stir until well mixed.
• 6. Then pour into a casserole dish for baking.
• 7. Crush crackers while in "tubes" (I usually wrap them in a dish towel to avoid a mess, and use a rolling pin or meat tenderizer) or place in a resealable plastic bag.
• 8. Pour crushed crackers into a bowl. Melt butter in the microwave and stir into crackers until moist.
• 9. Drizzle on top of casserole. (You can make more or less of the topping. More topping = more yummy!)
• 10. Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly and brown on top (usually 45-50 minutes). Bake for 30 minutes covered. with foil to help prevent crackers from burning.
• 11. Then uncover and bake an additional 20 minutes until golden brown on top.
• 12. ***If you want, you can add a cup of chopped cooked chicken into casserole. Also, adding 2 cups of cooked rice into it makes a delish meal.
