Yellow Squash Casserole

Teresa Ambra
Yellow Squash Casserole is outstanding. This amazing side dish recipe uses yellow squash, green onions, Italian-style bread crumbs and Italian seasoning to jazz it up. We sprinkle the top with Parmesan cheese amping up the flavors even more. This is terrific for a company or holiday side dish like Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter.

Notes

NOTE: Corey doesn’t like onions so she always substituted 1 tbsp. dehydrated onions for the onions in the recipe. Although I prefer to use fresh onions of any kind.
 
NOTE: 4C brand makes gluten free bread crumbs and Italian style gluten free bread crumbs. I purchase them at Walmart.
