Slowly but surely I am getting back into the groove of making a proper dinner. \u00a0This dish has a pretty quick prep time and you can even put it together earlier in the day and bake it later. \u00a0It can be a side or your main dish. \u00a0So even on a busy weeknight you can have dinner together without much fuss. \u00a0And you can use up any summer squash you might have around!<\/p>\n

Once at a pot luck dinner\u00a0a friend brought this amazing, creamy, cheesy squash casserole. \u00a0She described the ingredients to me, but I never got the entire recipe. \u00a0When I saw this squash casserole on Pinterest I had to give it a try because it looked so similar. \"Squash<\/a> This casserole is different. \u00a0Less creamy and cheesy, more focus on the vegetables, which is really nice. \u00a0It’s flavorful, clean tasting, and delicious. \u00a0One of the main differences is that this one doesn’t use condensed cream soup, something I really have nothing against, but something that I don’t mind finding a replacement for if I can. \u00a0The original recipe calls for eggs and sour cream as the binders. \u00a0I used the eggs, but substituted greek yogurt and it turned out really well.<\/p>\n

The feta gives a nice punch to the dish. \u00a0I mixed in some shredded carrots to add extra veggies and to help with some fridge clean out. \u00a0This is a really great side dish. \u00a0I served it with grilled pork tenderloin and bread.<\/p>\n

The thyme is a great herb here, you can use fresh or dried. \u00a0I used a mixture of green and yellow squash, but you can use all of one type of course. \u00a0And something I think I might try next time is using goat cheese instead of feta because I love me some goat cheese. \u00a0Enjoy! \"Squash<\/a><\/p>\n
