Ingredients
- 4 yellow squash about 8 cups sliced
- 4 zucchini about 8 cups sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon thyme or 1/2 tsp dried thyme, fresh leaves
- salt to taste
- 2 tomato sliced
- 2 egg
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 cup feta cheese not tightly packed, crumbled
- 2 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray a large casserole dish with nonstick spray. Slice the squash into 1/4" slices. If they are larger squash, cut them down the middle before slicing.
- Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the squash, garlic, thyme, and salt to taste. Sauté and stir until the squash is just starting to soften. Don't overcook!
- Remove from heat and add tomatoes.
- Beat together the eggs, sour cream, cheeses, and lemon juice in a medium sized bowl.
- Place half of the squash into the bottom of the casserole (you can be fancy and layer it like in the picture or you can just toss it in).
- Sprinkle on some salt and pepper then spread 1/2 of the egg mixture over the top. Repeat with remaining squash and egg mixture. Top with additional feta and Parmesan if desired.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the mixture is bubbling and slightly set. Serve hot.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- To add a crispy topping, combine about 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and 3 tablespoons melted butter, then sprinkle on top before baking.
- The casserole can be layered neatly or ingredients can be mixed together before placing in the dish.
