This was very rich and got great reviews at my house. For added color I used 4 c. yellow squash and 2 c. zucchini. This turned out really pretty with the orange of the carrots. Just a personal preference, but i think I almost like it better without the stuffing. It was too hot to light the oven so I cooked this in the microwave and it turned out fine.

This is really good. I had this recipe years and years ago....but lost it - I had been thinking about it recently. I was so glad when you mentioned it in a thread so that I could find it again. Thanks!

I am so glad that I found this recipe. It is a favorite of my son's. I told him I would make a squash casserole. I lost my recipe and couldn't remember exactly how to cook it. This recipe has been passed down through three generations at my house. Thanks for the recipe.

A great recipe I have used lots of times. I cook the carrot with the squash and onion. My mom-in-law says you can freeze this recipe, although I've never tried it myself. Thanks for posting!
