This is an amazing side dish and cooks up so quick it won't heat your kitchen up. For an even better taste, smoke it in the smoker!

Squash is hard to dislike... and with this recipe, it's near impossible! The freshness of the zucchini is accented (not hidden) by the addition of cream and cheese... yummers! The Test Kitchen
