About Squash casserole
Squash casserole is a classic Southern comfort dish featuring tender summer squash, often combined with sautéed onions, creamy binders like eggs or sour cream, and a savory topping of breadcrumbs or cheese. Originating from American Southern cuisine, it’s a staple at family gatherings and potlucks. While variations exist, the dish typically highlights fresh yellow squash, a low-calorie vegetable rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and dietary fiber. Its nutritional benefits are balanced by the indulgent aspects of the recipe, such as cheese, butter, or heavy cream, which can increase fat and calorie content. For a lighter version, ingredients can be adjusted by reducing the cheese or opting for whole-grain breadcrumbs. Squash casserole is a flavorful way to enjoy the nutritional perks of summer squash while indulging in the hearty richness that Southern cuisine is known for.
