Butternut Turkey Bake image

Butternut squash adds a little sweetness to this comforting casserole. You can use leftover turkey and even replace the croutons with leftover stuffing, if you wish. It's sure to satisfy your family. -Mary Ann Dell, Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

Overall, I thought this dish was a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

The butternut squash was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise this dish was very good.

This was a delicious and easy dish to make. I used boneless, skinless turkey breasts and it still turned out great.

I've made this dish twice now and it's always a winner. The combination of turkey, butternut squash, and sage is perfect.

This butternut turkey bake was a hit with my family! The turkey was moist and tender, and the butternut squash was sweet and creamy. The sage and thyme added a nice touch of flavor.
