Squash, Egg, and Cheese Casserole

A friend cooked us a similar dish and I was never able to get the original recipe. After a few years of trying, we’ve come up with this version and we like it even better than the first! A great way to get non-veggie lovers to indulge!

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step: 2

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the summer squash and onion until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Step: 3

While the squash are cooking, mix together the eggs, milk, 1 cup of Cheddar cheese, sugar, flour, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the squash mixture and melted butter; turn into a 2-quart casserole dish. Top with the remaining 2 cups of Cheddar cheese.

Step: 4

Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is set and the cheese topping is crisp and starting to brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Allow to stand for 15 minutes before serving.

Depriving yourself can lead to overeating , 2.00 AM snacking, and mindless eats and it’s for this mind that Riner encourages people to indulge in “fun” foods every once in a while.

Avoidance on late-night snacking and cravings , it is much important to include some easy foods (or what one may perceive as off limits ). Meaning , if we always order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, perhaps we really wanted the burger and should have just enjoyed it in the first place."

When it comes to dinner , overeating or eating too much of the wrong item of food can lead to bad habit on sleeping. On the other side, a daylight food that is less than satiating can leave you want more and resulting in reaching for an unhealthy late-night side dish even closer to bedtime .
