I was given a nice, big yellow squash and decided to try something new. So, off to the internet I went, in search of a new recipe. After researching several recipes, I made some changes and came up with my own version of this cheesy casserole. I’ve tried it with cheddar and with Gruyere and both were delicious. So, I would imagine any cheese that melts well will work with this dish.
