Along with Broccoli Casserole, a squash casserole is one of my favorite side dishes.
Squash Casserole with Stuffing Top Recipe
In addition to squash and sweet onion, this Squash Casserole with Stuffing Top also has shredded carrot for a little color and extra flavor. A can of condensed cream of chicken soup makes it really creamy and hearty. Cream of Mushroom soup could be used instead.

American cheese slices are place on top of the squash. They melt and provide a mild cheese flavor and lots of creaminess.
To finish it off, a buttery stuffing layer adds so much flavor. It’s such a filling casserole it could be eaten as a main dish. In fact, you could add some shredded chicken and you would have a delicious main dish casserole.

Recipe Tips
- I like to steam the squash and onions before adding them to the casserole since it only bakes for 30 minutes. Just until they are crisp-tender. This ensures they will be tender and soft in the finished dish.
- Use a combo oy yellow squash and zucchini to make it more colorful.
- Condensed Cream of Mushroom or Cream of Celery Soup can be used instead of Cream of Chicken.
Summer squash (yellow squash) is one of my favorite vegetables to cook with. Especially during the summer months. The fresh, young squash ( the smaller ones) are so tender and delicious!
Storage
Leftovers will keep for about 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
