I have made a zillion squash casseroles, and this is by far the BEST!!/I think it's because of scallions!!So don't ever substitute them for an onion!!
Super simple. Super yummy. The hubs who doesn't care for squash or zucchini loved this! Sounds like I wasn't the only one who couldn't find the cheese. When I turned my phone sideways, there it was. (1/2 cup grated parmesan, divided)
What kind of cheese and how much total? Thanks.
Loved this! Made for a friends dinner party and requested the recipe. I also added a package of 3 types of Italian shredded Cheese and layered. Baked a bit longer. Also added Italian seasonings and Herb De Province. Excellent
I made this based on all the positive ratings. I cooked the heavy cream down until it was thick (by about half), but it still soaked up all those bread crumbs when I added them, and it made a bit of a paste. We did not enjoy it and ended up throwing most of it away. I would consider trying again if I can figure out what I did wrong.
I made this recipe (cut in half for a single person) and this is awesome. I'm on vacation and this recipe sounded easy and delicious. Just ate 1/2 the pan.
Made this last night as I had pretty much everything in the fridge. Used leek instead of shallot and 2% milk instead of heavy cream. Didn't have panko bread but made some croutons which I broke up coursley. I also added some fresh tarragon. This is so good and so flexible. I will make it many times over the summer with fresh squash. Thanks for a very good recipe. Know my friends are going to love it with fresh fish.
I made this tonight and my husband just loved it. We will have this again for sure
Served with baked ham I had in the freezer and it made a fantastic summer dinner
Squash is not my favorite vegetable, so I rarely cook with it. This recipe was delicious! I added 3 cheese kielbasa and made it a main dish.
