To continue with the cheesy theme that started with my Cheez-It Chicken, I decided to make some cheesy baked squash. As I previously stated in my cheesy chicken post, I love cheese, so that also means there can never be too much cheese…kind of like you can never have too much chocolate:). Squash is one of my favorite vegetables; I have prepared it in many different ways but never combined with cheese.
I was really please with the way this recipe turned out. The squash was so teneder, the onions had a great flavor and the cheese went wonderfully. I basically took all the flavors that were in my Cheez-It Chicken and put them in this dish. I thought it turned out pretty tastey especially since it was an experimental dish!
Cheesy Baked Squash
Ingredients:
2 Medium squash
3-4 Tablespoons butter
Salt & Pepper, to taste
2 Well rounded tablespoons sour cream
1/2 Medium onion, sliced
Olive oil
1/4 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Rinse squash and then thinly slice.
Place squash and sliced onions in an oven safe baking dish. Drizzle a little olive oil on the squash and onions, salt and pepper to taste and then mix together.
Add sour cream and stir together well.
Place in oven and baked for 20-25 minutes. After about 20-25 minutes take out of oven and sprinkle cheese over top, put back in the oven until cheese has melted.
