A Sunrise Recipe: Cheesy Squash Casserole
Sunrise Senior Living
| February 10, 2016
Local, fresh summer squash makes this recipe a favorite for the residents at Sunrise of Decatur, GA, and our chef recommends using any combination of squash, such as pattypan, yellow crookneck or zucchini squash.
And, while normally enjoyed fresh, this is a great side dish to freeze for leftovers.
