Southwest Squash Casserole image

Easy to prepare, this recipe is flavorful yet can pack a 'punch' if you choose. Squash tend to be mild but by adding diced green chiles (and jalapenos if you want spicier) it's a surprisingly tasty recipe. It pleases a lot of people and has become a favorite at family gatherings.

This casserole was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would reduce the amount of cheese next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my casserole turned out too watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

I'm not a big fan of squash, but this casserole was surprisingly good. The sweetness of the squash was balanced out by the other ingredients.
