Summertime Squash Casserole

I love to make this when there is a bounty of squash in my garden!

1 c. shredded Cheddar cheese

1/2 c. cottage cheese

4 eggs, beaten

3 T. butter, melted

3/4 c. bread crumbs

1 T. parsley, chopped

1 t. salt

1/2 t. pepper

2 lbs. yellow squash, sliced

Simmer squash in a stockpot of water over medium-low heat until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix all ingredients together, adding the squash last. Pour into an ungreased 13"x9" baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Serves 6 to 8.

Fill tiny terra cotta pots with votive candles, then march them right down the center of a buffet table...so pretty. In summer, use citronella votives for outdoor picnic tables.
