Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  4. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers and remaining 1/4 cup of melted butter. Sprinkle over the casserole.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the squash mixture. You can also top the casserole with crushed cornflakes instead of Ritz crackers for a different texture.
