Squash Casserole (Charlotte's Barclay Cafeteria)

Recipe #79964 | 1¼ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

We still mourn the closing of Barclay Cafeteria in Charlotte, NC's Southpark Shopping Mall. This was one of their signature dishes and the local newspaper published the recipe in response to many requests when they closed. I make it frequently all year long but especially in summer squash season. It cooks up almost like a custard or souffle and is absolutely delicious.

Everyone loved this and I even had requests for the recipe. I followed the recipe as written and used the full 2 tablespoons sugar. Some reviewers said that was too much sugar, but we didn't think so. I didn't have a potato masher because my DD took it off to college, so I had to use my electric mixer. I'd highly recommend investing in a potato masher because the electric mixer made a mess and I had to leave it somewhat chunky. Nevertheless, it didn't alter the taste and we all enjoyed this dish. Thank you l0vetw0c00k for posting!

    I made this recipe today for a family function BOY was it a hit!! I doubled the recipe so there was plenty. I put a small amount on my plate and it was great . I went back for more only to find my 34yo nephew scraping the casserole dish for more.

    So good I had leftovers of it for breakfast the next day! One word of caution: it seemed a bit too sweet for my taste, so next time I make it I will use 2 TEASPOONS of sugar rather than 2 tablespoons. Other than that minor adjustment, it was BY FAR the best squash casserole I've ever had!

    My dinner guest declared this "the best squash casserole I've ever had. I could eat it everyday!" I liked it as well. Due to availability and diet constraints, I used Egg-beaters and no-fat half'n half. Thanks.
