Fall is such a fantastic time when the garden is full of produce to be harvested.  Easy Zucchini and Yellow Squash Casserole is a great way to use up some of your zucchini and yellow squash!  This casserole is delicious and even pretty healthy.  I even know a few picky eaters who enjoy this dish.

It seems that this time of year, we scramble to figure out a way to use up that zucchini that has sprung up everywhere in our gardens (and on our doorsteps from neighbors).  If you are not careful and lock your car doors at church, you will probably even find some zucchini in your car after church.

Do I Need to Peel The Squash or Zucchini Before I Use it in this Easy Zucchini and Yellow Squash Casserole?

• No, you do not need to peel your squash or zucchini before making this casserole!
• Wash your squash and zucchini really well and cut off the stems, but you do not need to peel off the skin.
• The skin softens as it cooks and is perfect for eating.

This casserole is such a good alternative to the traditional fried zucchini or zucchini bread.  I do like fried zucchini and zucchini bread,  but this casserole is not only tasty, but it makes a good meal too.
