This easy low carb yellow squash casserole recipe is made without cheese. It’s topped with a mix of butter and pork rinds with eggs holding it together.
I thought I’d try a different type of summer squash casserole. I wanted something without cheese this time. And, I needed it to be an easy to make recipe.
We are getting tons of yellow squash from the garden. It seems to be an endless supply. I just wish the zucchini were growing this well.
This yellow squash casserole recipe uses a butter and pork rind topping. It gives the dish a nice golden top.
I seeded the squash first, but seeding isn’t necessary. The eggs in this dish holds things together and the parsley adds some contrasting color.
Although I used yellow crookneck, you can use any variety in this yellow squash casserole recipe. If I had some zucchini, I’d probably have thrown that in there too.
You can even serve this yummy bake for breakfast. In fact, I heated it up the next day for my early morning meal.
If your garden is producing tons of yellow squash, there are a lot of low carb dishes you can make with it. Just check out the collection of summer squash recipes over at All Natural Ideas.
