Butternut Squash and Duxelles Casserole image

From the February 2010 "Fab Five" list of Vegetarian Times. (Duxelles is a paste of finely chopped mushrooms and shallots.) This is a wonderful comfort food that is actually fairly low calorie (depending on how much cheese you use).

This casserole was a disaster! It was watery and tasteless.

This recipe is a bit bland. I added some extra spices to taste.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted the duxelles from the casserole. It was still very good.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover butternut squash. It's also a good make-ahead dish.

The butternut squash and duxelles casserole was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it.
