Was a nice way to use up some squash. The only change I made was to use panko bread crumbs instead of the Ritz. It was good but a little bit bland. I would make it again but add a bit more seasoning, probably some more garlic and some paprika or something.

Didn't have to tweak this recipe. It was simple and tasted very good. One of the best squash casserole I have made in a long time.

I prepared this for dinner with fresh squash. So delicious! I left out the sugar, but I used sweet onion, so it seemed to balance out. Thanks for posting!!
