2 tablespoons butter

3 yellow squash, sliced

1 pound lean ground beef

1 onion, chopped

3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup crushed buttery round crackers

Procedure

1	Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute squash in butter until tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
2	In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, and jalapeno, stirring until beef is evenly browned. Drain off grease. In a large bowl, mix together the squash, eggs, and mayonnaise. Stir in the ground beef mixture and Cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a 9x13 inch baking dish, and sprinkle cracker crumbs evenly over the top.
3	Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until heated through, and the top is nicely browned.
