Cheesy Butternut Squash Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onions in the hot oil until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in squash and garlic; season with salt. Cook squash mixture, stirring occasionally, until squash is slightly tender, about 10 minutes. Add water if mixture gets too dry. Transfer squash mixture to the prepared casserole dish.
• Lightly whisk eggs in a bowl; stir in sour cream, Parmesan cheese, basil, and black pepper. Pour egg mixture over squash mixture; top with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender and mozzarella cheese is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine 1 Tbsp. salt and 6 cups water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Gradually whisk in polenta, then cook over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until polenta just begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Stir in squash, reduce heat to medium-low, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until polenta is thick and no longer gritty, and squash mashes easily when pressed with the back of a spoon, 30-40 minutes.
• Mix in milk and nutmeg, increase heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring constantly and smashing squash with the back of spoon, until squash is dissolved into the polenta, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan and 1/4 cup butter until melted. Let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add sage and cook, stirring, just until leaves are lightly crisped and darker in color, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sage to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Grease a shallow 3-qt. baking dish with butter, then transfer polenta mixture to baking dish. Scatter Fontina cheese over and press down lightly with spoon to submerge. Top with crisped sage. Let cool to room temperature, then cover and chill overnight and up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Uncover dish and bake casserole until bubbly and lightly browned on top, 30-35 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Cut fresh squash into chunks.
• Put squash in boiling water. Add salt and pepper to water (add accordingly). Boil for 10-12 minutes.
• Preheat oven 350 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, add stuffing, onions, cream of mushroom, sour cream, jalepenos. In a small bowl, mix 1 bouillon cube with enough water that it dissolves well. Add bouillon mixture to the other ingredients. Finally, add the cheese by the handful. Make sure the mixture blends smoothly.
• Smash up the squash and drain most of the juices that are released from the squash. Add to other ingredients and mix.
• Pour mixture into a large pre-greased (spray with cooking spray) baking tray and spread evenly.
• Pour enough breadcrumbs to cover entire mixture.
• Put in oven for 25 minutes. All cheese should be melted.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease shallow 2-quart casserole with shortening, or spray with cooking spray. Cook and drain pasta as directed on package.
