Dixie Cafe Baked Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• With a sharp knife, carefully cut about four 1/2-inch slits in the squash to allow steam to escape while it cooks. Put the squash on a baking sheet and roast for about 1 1/2 hours. Let the squash cool for about 20 minutes on the baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a bowl and prepare an ice water bath. Blanch the broccoli briefly in the boiling water, then transfer to the ice bath to cool. Drain and set aside.
• Cut the squash in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. With a large fork, pull the squash fibers away from the outer peel (use a towel to hold the squash in place if necessary). Reserve the squash and the outer peel.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Put the milk and garlic in a saucepan over medium-high heat and heat until it just begins to simmer, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, add the Neufchatel cheese, Parmesan and 1 cup of the mozzarella and stir until melted. Turn off the heat, stir in the yogurt and season with salt and pepper. Remove the garlic. Add the squash, chicken and broccoli and toss to coat. Divide the mixture between the reserved squash peels. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.
• Place the stuffed squash onto a baking sheet and broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly, a few minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Cut tips off squash. Cut each onto 3 or 4 pieces. Put into pan with enough boiling water to cover. Cook until tender. Drain squash and mash. Combine with eggs, bread crumbs, butter, sugar, salt, onion and pepper. Pour into lightly greased 3- quart casserole. Cover with light layer of bread crumbs.
• 2. Bake @ 350 until lightly browned.

Steps:

• Trim squash, cut into large chunks & boil to tender.
• Drain & mash.
• Mix all ingredients, saving half of the crumbs and put into sprayed 8x8 baking dish.
• Cover with remaining bread crumbs.
• Bake at 350 until lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place squash and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in a small amount of water. Cover, and cook until squash is tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well, and place in a large bowl.
• In a medium bowl, mix together cracker crumbs and cheese. Stir half of the cracker mixture into the cooked squash and onions. In a small bowl, mix together eggs and milk, then add to squash mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter, and season with salt and pepper. Spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cracker mixture, and dot with 2 tablespoons butter.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned.
