Best Squash Casserole Ever

This is a very good casserole. I gave it 4 stars because after reading reviews I modified it a little. I added 1/2 t. garlic powder, 1/2 t. garlic pepper, only 1 egg, and 2 additional T. butter. If you buy the Ritz 4 pack, 35 crackers is one pack. I think garlic is a must for this recipe unless there is someone out there that doesn’t like garlic. Over all a very good recipe. My son said it was not his favorite, hubby said, “I like it fine”. As for me, I really liked it.
Really good!!! I love summer squash and this is a good way to use all the crooknecks from my garden. The texture beneath the crust was mushy (but still yummy) so I tried baking the casserole for 10-15 min and then putting the crust on to brown. It wasn’t quite as mushy this way, and I also didnt simmer the veggies first- they still get plenty tender for my taste but you avoid a mushy product. Will try adding some meat next time for a main dish! Thanx for a good recipe!!
