    Ma Fern’s Squash Casserole, I grew up in Alabama and learned to make squash casserole from my Ma Fern, without added calories from milk, canned soup, crackers, or bread crumbs! —————- NOTE: Prep time includes cool down time after the squash is sauteed! Cooking time includes estimated time for sauteing the squash, AND baking the casserole in the oven!, Made for Thanksgiving and it was enjoyed very much Leftovers today!, Awesome! I really do not like cream or milk in casseroles, so this recipe is a real keeper for me The squash flavor really comes through when there’s so few other ingredients- I love it Not too cheesy, but I enjoyed that as well I actually cut the recipe down to four servings, and baked these in individual dishes It worked nicely [Made & Reviewed for PRMR]

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Heat Bacon Fat Over Medium-High Heat, in a Large Iron Skillet. Add Squash, Onions, Water, Salt and Pepper ~ Saute Uncovered Until Squash Is Tender and Water/Squash Juices Have Evaporated, Stirring Occasionally. Slight Browning of the Squash Is Okay, but Be Careful That It Doesn't Scorch!

    Done

    Note: If You Are Impatient (like My Daughter), and Cannot Wait Until the Squash Has Cooked Dry, and the Onions Have Developed a Caramelized Flavor, Then Drain the Sauteed Squash in a Colander!
