Tex-Mex Summer Squash Casserole
12 servings
Ingredients
2 1/4 pounds summer squash, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise (about 10 cups)
2/3 cup finely chopped yellow onion
1 4-ounce can chopped green chiles
1 4-1/2-ounce can chopped jalapenos, (about 1/2 cup), drained
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 1/4 cups grated extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, (about 7 ounces), divided
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup mild salsa
4 scallions, thinly sliced, for garnish
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, for garnish
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
