• 3 eggs beaten
• ½ cup chopped yellow onion
• ¼ cup buttermilk
• salt and pepper to taste
• dried parsley
• ½ cup to 1 cup shredded cheddar cheesedivided
• ¼ cup melted butter

Instructions
Peel, slice and boil the squash with a little salt. I boiled mine in the Instant Pot at 4 minutes and it was perfect! Mash and drain water out well.
After thoroughly removing excess water and mashing, add eggs, onions, buttermilk, salt, pepper, parsley, half of the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the crushed butter crackers. Spread in a lightly greased casserole pan.
Mix butter with other half of crackers and cheese and spoon over the top. Bake at 375 degrees F for one hour or until top is browned and bubbly. Enjoy!
