Well, this recipe just has Wow all over it! Ok, and that was the corniest saying EVER...but seriously, folks. Really good recipe. It has good potential for experimenting too.
I only had 5 squash to use, so, I think one or two more would have made it even better, but I couldn't see why you couldn't maybe add some broccoli into it or even brussel sprouts!
But, for now, give it a shot once and see what you think. I love this and will definitely be making it again.
Here are the basic ingredients:
6 cups yellow squash or zucchini,
1 cup chopped onion,
1 can cream of chicken soup,
1 cup sour cream,
1 cup shredded carrots,
½ cup butter or margarine,
1 package seasoned stuffing mix
Turn your oven to 350 degrees and get the oven warming.
Put on a pot of water, add some salt and start it boiling.
Cut up your onion. I know it says one cup, but I always just use the whole thing. It's usually pretty close to that and why save a sliver of onion? Just cook it! Go ahead and just put that chopped up onion into your boiling pot of water.
Next, slice up your squash and/or zucchini and go ahead and dump that into the pot of boiling water as well.
Set the timer for 5 minutes and let it boil away. Make sure and adjust the temp if necessary to prevent it from foaming over.
While that's boiling, go ahead and grate up some carrots into a big bowl.
Add your can of Cream of Chicken Soup
Add your cup of sour cream
Stir! Now the original recipe says to stir the soup and sour cream first, then add carrots, but I just stirred it all together and it worked just fine.
By this time, it should be five minutes! Drain your veggies and add them to your soup mixture.
Stir!
Now, for the stuffing. The recipe just said to mix the butter in the stuffing. So, you wonder, dry? Are you supposed to wet it? One time, I tried it dried, thinking that the moisture from the food would moisten the bread crumbs. WRONG WRONG WRONG. Go ahead and put enough hot water in to moisten the stuffing mix and then mix in your softened butter.
Put half the stuffing on the bottom of your casserole dish
Put ALL the veggie soup mixture on top of that
Spread the rest of the stuffing mix on top of that
Put it in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes until it's all bubbly and hot looking..
And let me tell you, I just loved this. It was so good.
