I thought it was terrific - DH not so much (it was squash, after all). Made half a recipe, and used shredded rather than cubed cheese. Also, we use a chicken base paste rather than bouillon cubes. Instead of adding it to the pan with frying onions I mixed a tsp. of it with the reserved water, then used the recipe amount of salt. It came out fine.

This is amazing! I halved it and it was just perfect. Cut the butter to 2.5 tablespoons and used unsalted. I cooked the squash and cornbread the night before and chopped everything else to make it easier for a weeknight. Better than Boston Market, less grease.

OH...MY...GOD!! I made this for a some friends about two weeks ago (just as an experiment). It was the first time I'd tried the recipe so I was a little skeptical. Lucky for me...it was a HUGE success! I even had to make "to-go" boxes because everyone loved it so much. Everyone wanted to take some home...even the folks who claim to dislike squash. My boyfriend was disappointed to find that I had given so many "to-go" boxes...he didn't have any left. We've had it FOUR times since!! This recipe tastes exactly like Boston Market Squash Casserole (if not better). I was almost tempted to use shredded chesse but the cubes of cheddar cheese are like finding little drops of heaven. Also, crumbling the Jiffy Corn Muffin in the casserole (instead of my usual Seasoned bread crumbs) seemed to have made all the difference. I will NEVER go back to my old Squash Casserole recipe again!!! I only have one suggestion: The cheese already produces a little bit of grease so, if you have a sensitive stomach, do not use the entire 3/4 cup (a stick and a half) of butter. Just use about 1/3 cup.

I made this for Thanksgiving. I doubled the recipe. I did reduce the butter by half a cup (or 1/4 a cup for reg. recipe) and it still tasted great. Everyone really liked it including the ones who don't like squash. The only thing I will change next time is to omit a cube or so of the chicken bullion. My casserole was not overly salty, but for me it was on the borderline. Overall I thought it was a great recipe and will continue to make it.
