This is a wonderful recipe. I made just as she said and it turned out delicious. I am not a fan of yellow squash, however I received some and had to cook it up. This was a delight to us all. I will make again and again.

Excellent and easy recipe. I used all extra sharp cheddar because I had no parm on hand, but it was great. I slightly undercooked the squash so it wasn't soft when I put it in the oven.

I made this recipe for my family reunion today. I liked it much better than others I had tasted before. I will be making it again. I am not sure that I ended up with enough squash in mine though. I was not sure what you would consider a medium squash. How many cups of cut up squash should I have ended up with??? Also, I thought about a chicken casserole recipe that uses Ritz crackers on top, but they are stirred into a little butter first before they are sprinkled on top.

This was my first time making this recipe and it became and instant family classic. My dad, who "hates melted cheese" (as if something so absurd was even possible!) ate 3 helpings. Picky children, who won't even touch corn or green beans, gobbled this up! Truly delicious. So easy. And, since our squash plants are giving us a healthy bounty, this recipe will be made in bulk and frozen for yummy side dishes to enjoy in the cold winter months ![]()

This is a very good recipe my husband loved it !! The only thing i did different was i used yellow zucchini and Patti pan squash i really liked the variety ..

I'm generally not a casserole fan, but this one is soooo good! I couldn't stop eating the bit I'd set aside for myself to try.
I did a few variations: I added a clove of minced garlic, a pinch of garlic powder, a pinch of sweet paprika and a pinch of dried fennell seeds to the squash and onions.
I also used 4 cheeses, instead of two; sharp cheddar, parmesan, mozerella & just a bit of Swiss that needed to be used up to equal 1 and 1/2 cups total of cheese.
Other than that, I followed the recipe to the tee and it turned out absolutely scrumptious, hearty, creamy and delicious!
I highly reccommend this recipe as it's also very quick & easy to make!

Its alright...Somewhat bland. The squash gets lost in the sauce.

I find that you have a lot of recipes that have Pumpkin in them. Can Sweet Potatioes be used instead? Thanks
By Barbara on December 02, 2011
Dear Paula, Girl let me tell you....I don't like most veggies besides corn and green beans, and well potates. For the sake of my daugther future health though I want to get her as interested in healthy foods. She's only 2 1/2, and as of now she has a wide food palete but I have been trying to spice it up with new veggies and foods and this was amazing. I made it with my mom and us girls had a good evening of fun and delicious foods! Thanks again & God Bless! Love, Jennifer Fox

I've seen the show where your friend Bubbles has mentioned using your tip to put cornstarch in her whipped cream to make it more stable...problem is she didn't say and neither did you on how much cornstarch to use. Please answer this question. Love your show; watch every day at least twice a day. Robin
By Robin Henry on October 07, 2011
Hey Paula,
This recipe sounds great but you should try it adding a lil old bay and shrimp sauteed in butter and some shredded cheddar cheese emmmm em...
Have a great day!

Best squash EV-ER. I make it all the time! The parmesan cheese is expensive, but makes it worth the cost.
