Celebrate the Holiday’s with a Squash Casserole

2 pounds yellow squash
1 large onion, chopped
1 jar chopped pimentos
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
Optional: 1 small can of chopped green chilies or 1 finely chopped jalapeño

Layer on bottom and use as topping:
1 package of PepperRidge Farms Cornbread Stuffing Mix
1 stick of butter, melted

Slice squash and cook with chopped onions, salt and pepper to taste.  When tender, drain and set aside.  Combine all other ingredients and mix into cooked squash mixture.  Mix melted butter into the cornbread dressing mix and line the bottom of the casserole dish with ½ the mixture.  Spoon the squash mixture onto the cornbread dressing and add remaining cornbread stuffing mix as a topping.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes until hot and bubbly.
