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.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my casserole came out watery and bland. I'm not sure I'll try this recipe again.

This recipe is missing some important ingredients. I had to add some salt, pepper, and garlic powder to make it taste good.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my casserole didn't turn out as well as I hoped. I think I might have overcooked it.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of squash and zucchini in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.
