Kim, this is a great squash casserole! I am used to the stuff you get at Black eyed pea or Luby's. I thought cheese would take away from the clean tasty beauty of squash but I loved it and my little bro did too. I sauteed the squash and onions and halved the recipe and it still came out great. I might even try making this for myself one night as a main dish with a salad.-thnx sarah

    Good not a 10 to me though--not sure if I did everything correct because I felt directions could have expained more-- for instance-- chop squash? Chopped onion? etc..

    Oh my goodness, Kim... please thank your grandmother for me! This was the best squash casserole I've ever made (and I have made quite a few through the years). I probably put more cracker crumbs than your recipe calls for, but I can't imagine this tasting any better. The casserole was so very light, fluffy, and exceptionally delicious. This recipe will have a very special place in my "Tried and True" cookbook! Thank you so very much for sharing this gem of a recipe!
