When my children were younger I was trying to figure out a creative way for them to enjoy squash. So my neighbor gave me this squash casserole recipe that she said was the only way her children would eat squash. I made it once and it was a hit. I have since perfected it a bit and now, my grown children always ask for it at the holidays.
