3 yellow squash 1 onion, chopped 7 TBS butter 6 ounces stuffing mix 8 ounces mushrooms ¼ tsp garlic powder ¼ tsp onion powder 3 TBS all-purpose flour 1 can chicken broth ¼ teaspoon salt ⅛ teaspoon pepper ½ cup half and half

Slice squash and chop onions and mushrooms.

Melt 2 TBS butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the squash and onions to the pan. Saute for 5 to 7 minutes, until tender. Remove squash and onions from the skillet and set aside in a large bowl or a colander to allow excess water to drain out.

Return the pan to the burner over medium heat, and melt 1 TBS of butter. Add mushrooms to the pan and sprinkle with garlic powder and onion powder. Sauté for 5 minutes, until soft and brown .

In a measuring cup, combine flour, half the broth, salt and pepper. Stir well until smooth and pour over the mushroom mixture. Add the remaining chicken broth and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to avoid clumping, until thickened.

Reduce the heat to low and add the half-and-half. Stir to fully incorporate. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Combine the squash and onion mixture, the herbed stuffing and 4 TBS of melted butter in a bowl. Stir until the stuffing mixture is moistened. Add the mushroom soup and stir until incorporated.

Spread the squash and stuffing mixture into a buttered baking dish. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees, until heated through but not dried out.
