Many were intrigued by the squash casserole that my dad made a couple of weeks ago while I was in Florida and I received requests for a recipe.
I was happy to create my own version of squash casserole to share with you guys today! I served this recipe to some friends who came over for dinner last night and all of us went back for seconds. Safe to say it’s a winner!
CHEESY SUMMER SQUASH CASSEROLE
Cheesy Summer Squash Casserole
Using summer squash for a cheesy casserole with a crispy panko topping is probably my favorite way to eat it. I mean, what’s not to love about cheese + crunch?
The ingredients line-up is pretty simple.
Step one is to saute the squash and onion in some butter.
While the squash is cooking, stir together the cheesy mixture of greek yogurt (or sour cream), mayo and shredded cheddar cheese.
Stir cheese mixture into sautéed squash.
Top with panko bread crumbs that are tossed with melted butter and a little more cheese.
And bake! Easy, peasy.

The result is a warm, gooey, cheesy inside that has the perfect amount of tang thanks to the yogurt/sour cream. The crispy, buttery Panko topping balances out the texture so well.
One option to kick it up a notch when it comes to flavor profile is to add some cayenne pepper to the squash when it’s sautéing. Skip this if you don’t like the heat but my friends really enjoyed the addition when I served the squash casserole with dinner last night.
Here’s the recipe!

It’s a three-day stage race in Moab, Utah that’s put on by the same race organization, TransRockies Rockies Race Series, that I did my six-day Colorado race with back in August. TransRockies truly excels when it comes to planning and [...]
