My Nanny had an incredible garden. When I was growing up she would often make fried yellow squash. It was so good with that cornmeal crust. And sometimes she would put yellow squash in a pot with cheddar cheese and onions. Oh, gosh it was good.
I have been craving her squash for a few weeks now and Pintrest saved the day! This Keto yellow squash casserole recipe is just what I was looking for!
