Ingredients
Scale
2 lbs yellow squash, sliced
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in the sour cream, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese until well combined and the cheese is melted.
Add the sliced yellow squash to the cheese mixture and stir gently to coat.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the mixture into a greased 8×8 inch baking dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned on top.
Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For an extra cheesy topping, sprinkle a little more cheese on top before baking.
You can use a combination of your favorite melting cheeses.
Ensure your squash is sliced evenly for consistent cooking.
