• 2 large eggs
• nonstick cooking spray

• 1 (6 ounce) package stuffing mix (such as Kraft® Stove Top®)
• 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add squash and onion, reduce heat to medium, and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain all but 1 inch of the liquid and set the pot aside to cool for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Add eggs to the squash-onion mixture and beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Stir in 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese and all but 1/4 cup of the stuffing mix. Transfer mixture to the prepared casserole. Top with remaining cheese and stuffing.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, 30 to 45 minutes.
