Texican Squash

My Mom gave me this recipe. It’s a different spin on the regular squash casserole.

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.

Step: 2

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add squash and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.

Step: 3

In a large bowl combine eggs, milk, cheese, salt, baking powder, flour and chiles; mix well. Fold in squash.

Step: 4

Sprinkle half of the crushed corn chips in the bottom of the prepared dish. Spoon the squash mixture into the dish, and top with the remaining crushed chips.

Step: 5

Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.

The most obvious way to pick a side dish is to look at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and choose more different. If you’re cooking pasta, go for a simple healthy dish . Made steak? Go for more light. If you’re want to cooking stir-fry with rice, it must not a good idea to also make a rice salad.

One make sure is also can apply to cooking method . You don’t want to overcommit your oven by scheduling three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the cooking items . But sometimes you can made a dish do double-duty .
