    Harvest Yellow & Zucchini Squash & Beef Casserole, This is a yummy, warming casserole that is meant to be a side dish, but since it has meat in it, can also be served as a main dish This is the version I came up with after significantly reducing some of the heavier ingredients, that were in the original version I saw on Lucy Classic Cajun & Cuisine, a PBS cooking program But don’t let that scare you – this is not a spicy dish at all I make this often in the end of summer to use up fresh squash If you don’t have both types of squash, just use 2 of whichever type you do have , How do I get the recipe without going crazy?
