Ingredients

  • 2 pounds yellow squash, thinly sliced
  • 1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup butter, cut into small chunks
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart microwave-safe baking dish with a cover.

  3. In a bowl, whisk together milk and cornstarch until smooth, and stir in the beaten eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour the milk mixture over the squash and onions.
  4. Melt 1/4 cup butter.
  5. Sprinkle the corn flakes cereal evenly over the top of the casserole, drizzle with the melted butter, and bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until the cereal topping is golden and crisp.

I'm not a big fan of squash and this is very squash tasting. I do like the egg in the mixture.
