My grandmother used to make this when I was a little girl. I have tried your recipe and it tastes just like Grandma’s. It’s wonderful!
This was very easy to make and very tasty. I have shared with friends and they have all asked for the recipe.
This recipe is fantastic and so cheesy. It doesn’t taste low-fat at all, it’s very rich.
This recipe is wonderful. Doesn’t taste low fat at all. My husband said it was definately a keeper.
This was very good! Even my kids ask me to make it often!
my family loves this recipe. it is easy and very good. instead of bread crumbs, i use crushed fat free saltines on top.
I thought that it was very good. I think that instead of boiling the squash and onions I would have preferred to saute them together first. Probably would have had more flavor but all in all I enjoyed. I give it a 9
I tried this dish today, fixed it for my whole family. They loved it. It was wonderful.
