This casserole was a hit with my family! The flavors of the squash, cheese, and rice blended perfectly, and the crunchy topping added a nice texture. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was really easy to make, but it was a bit bland. I think I would have preferred it with more herbs and spices.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my casserole turned out really dry. I think I might have used too much rice.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it needs some tweaking. I would add more cheese and maybe some chopped vegetables.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my casserole didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The squash was too mushy and the cheese was rubbery. I think I might have overcooked it.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover squash. I had some butternut squash that was about to go bad, so I decided to make this dish. It turned out great! The squash was soft and flavorful, and the cheese and rice made it a hearty and satisf

This dish was very easy to make and it tasted delicious. I used butternut squash, but I think any type of squash would work well. I also added a few chopped walnuts for extra crunch.
