My daughter-in-law created this recipe and shared it with me. I was delighted, since my husband and I were cutting down on fried foods and that's the way I had always prepared squash. The recipe is versatile...it can easily be enlarged to serve for a family dinner. -Sue Joyce, Winston-Salem, North Carolina

My family and I really enjoyed this recipe, it was very yummy! I added another egg to it and used onion flakes and it turned out great. Thanks for sharing!

My husband and I really enjoy summer squash prepared this way. It's now become the only recipe I use for summer squash. We add a more cheese than recipe calls for. Definitely comfort food at its best!!!

This summer squash bake is wonderful, easy, and even my kids (including husband) love it. I added a clove of minced garlic along with the onions.
