For a side dish with harvesttime appeal, you can't go wrong with this savory squash bake. It's creamy, comforting and looks pretty, too, thanks to the rich yellow butternut squash and golden crumb topping. -Bertha Johnson, Indianapolis, Indiana

I personally do not think Mayonnaise and Squash go good together at all...

Made this for Thanksgiving this year(2010) for something new. I loved it! I used ritz crackers instead of saltines and sauted the onions. My lil guys 3 and 5 were a little picky, but all the rest of the family loved it.

I've been making this recipe for about four years. It's a Thanksgiving staple in my family, and it's one I love to take to our potluck at work, too. I find that if the onions are chopped finely enough, they're not overwhelming. That said, I do prefer to sautee them.

Call me picky but I was hesitant to bake squash for dinner. This recipe was delicious though! I used light mayo and it tastes just fine. I might saute the onions with a little garlic next time.

I made this last night and I loved the flavor. I admit, there was a strong onion flavor, but not overwhelming. After reading more of the reviews, I will try adding more squash, eliminating the sugar and using low fat mayo to bring the fat/caloric content down and boost the "healthy" factor.

This is easy to make and tastes good! I've never had issues with the onions. I really like having a butternut squash recipe in my collection that isn't sweet. :)

I just made this tonight & the flavor of onion was overwhelming! Is it posssible the onions should be cooked first before adding to casserole? The recipe does not indicate. My result was a beautifully cooked nice looking casserole with the onions within still raw! Some of you did indicate that you sauted onions & the recipe was better. Will try again doing so before passing judgement. But really, whomever created this recipe should make an indication as to what to do. I ended up throwing it away.

This was really good! I did tweak it to enhance the nutrition and taste. I did saute the onions as suggested by other reviewers, I doubled the squash to lower calories and get more veggie taste, and I used reduced fat mayo to cut calories again. A keeper for sure.

I love this recipe, I have been making this recipe for about 2 yrs. I tell all my friends about it and it is even better the second day.

Forgot to add that I saute the onions before adding them to the squash, and I think the recipe is much better that way.
