- 1/2 cup Stick of Butter
- 1/2 cup Bell Pepper
- 1/2 cup Onion chopped
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 cups Grated Cheese
- Cassarole Dish: 9x13 inches, greased
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Wash and slice 4 cups of yellow squash. Chop 1/2 cup of bell pepper for a pop of color and flavor, and 1/2 cup of onion.
- In a large skillet, melt half of the stick of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté until they're soft.
- To the skillet, add the sliced squash and continue to cook until the squash is tender.
- Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a large bowl. Stir in 1 cup of mayonnaise and mix with the squash mixture until well combined.
- Grease your casserole dish with the remaining butter. Spread the squash mixture evenly across the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle 2 cups of grated cheese over the top.
- Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown.
- Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm alongside a green salad for a complete meal.
