Posh Yellow Squash Casserole

This is such an easy recipe to make and everyone loves it. I found the recipe originally in the 'Pon Top Edisto cookbook. I have never tried this recipe with bell peppers added. That is up to the individual. I have received more compliments when I use half cheddar and half parmesan cheese together. You can't go wrong either way.
