I’ve never had a cream sauce as good as this one. It is a short supper that is a hassle-free approach to amaze guests.

Doubled the cheese, 2 cloves of garlic. baked for two hours (I used really wet steamed squash) Didn’t even have to add meat for my meal, it was that good.
I omitted sugar and added an egg, more bread crumbs, and more cheese. My family loves this. And no one in my family likes summer squash.
My neighbor always brings us a ton of squash and I never know how to use all of it. This was the perfect recipe for it. My whole family LOVED it!! I may try sharp cheddar next time just to give it a little zing but this was an incredible recipe!
Turned out great! It was a hit! Added about a cup of cheddar on top. Yummmo
Family always loves this!
was very bland needed more cheese
My whole family loved this casserole even my young grandkids. I added garlic and extra and onions and some zucchini squash. I have made this 4X now and the opinion of my family is this is the best casserole of all the squash I have cooked.Also added extra cheddar cheese and whipped it with a mixer. My vote is a 5 star. SK from Tn.
I did not care for this recipe.
Awesome!
Decreasing the milk from the original 2/3 can to 1/2 can improved the consistency .
I haven’t eaten squash in over 30 years but I made this for my son. It smelled Great so I tried it and FELL IN LOVE! I have given some to friends and they said it’s the best squash casserole they’ve had! Great recipe!
Awesome
It was a split decision- those of us who like squash really liked this casserole, the ones who didn’t- not so much. I think the texture was nice, and the flavor was great.
