Dish it out.I would really like the recipe for the squash casserole from the new restaurant in Vicksburg called the Bistro Under the Stairs on the corner of Washington Street The following streets in the United States are called Washington Street:
Kim Steen Vicksburg SQUASH CASSEROLE 2 yellow squash 2 zucchini squash 1/4 cup butter or margarine 1/2 onion, sliced 2 fresh cloves garlic, minced Salt and pepper to taste Slice squash and zucchini into 1/8-inch slices. Set aside. Melt butter in a fairly large skillet, and add onions and garlic. Cook until onions are almost translucent. Add squash and zucchini. Continue to cook until squash is soft. Add salt and pepper. You may want to add a little more butter if they brown too fast. Note: If you use real butter, be sure to add olive oil to the skillet while heating. Butter will cook much faster than margarine and therefore burn.
