Equipment

  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Dutch oven or stock pot
  • Spoon
  • Large bowl
  • Strainer or colander
  • 9x13 baking dish

Ingredients

  • 4 cups squash sliced
  • 1 onion diced
  • avocado oil spray (or any cooking spray of your choice)
  • 3-4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs divided
  • 1 cup light shredded cheese divided

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cut the squash into 1/4-inch slices and dice the onion.
  • In a dutch oven or stock pot, saute the squash in avocado oil spray over medium heat until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Remove the squash from the dutch oven and let it sit in a colander for a bit to remove some of the excess liquid. Use the back of a spoon to gently press on the squash to help things along if you'd like.
  • While the squash is resting, deglaze the dutch oven with chicken or vegetable stock.
  • Add the onion and saute until soft and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and add the garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • In a large bowl, combine the squash and onions with the sour cream, Greek yogurt, half of the panko, and half of the shredded cheese.
  • Spread the mixture in a sprayed 9x13 baking dish and top with the remaining shredded cheese and panko.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes until the cheese has melted and the panko has started to brown.
