Scalloped Sweet Potatoes And Butternut Squash Recipe


Scalloped Sweet Potatoes And Butternut Squash Recipe
I made this up to go with some grilled salmon and boy it sure turned out a lot better than I expected! A nice twist off the old scalloped potatoes. (Sorry no picture, we dug in before the camera came out)

Ingredients
  • 3 Tbsp Margarine or Butter
  • 2 Tbsp Flour
  • 2 C Milk
  • 1/2 Yellow Onion (Med sized), Chopped
  • 1/2-1 Tbsp Fresh Sage, Minced
  • 1/4 C Asiago Cheese, Finely shredded
  • Garlic Salt
  • Pepper
  • 2 Med Sweet Potatoes
  • 1 Med Butternut Squash
  • Olive Oil
  • *1/2 C Milk

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Chop sweet potatoes and butternut squash in quarters lengthwise, then brush with olive oil.
  3. When oven is preheated, place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for five minutes. After five minutes is up add the squash to the baking sheet and cook till almost tender and not crispy, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. While the veggies are baking melt butter in a saucepan with the onions.
  5. When onions are tender add flour, milk and sage, season to taste with garlic salt and pepper. Stir occasionally.
  6. When veggies are done remove from oven and let cool so they'll be easier to handle.
  7. Slice thinly and remove skins (unless you like to come them on.)
  8. Layer in greased 8x8 baking dish like this; sweet potato, half of the squash, a little less than half the sauce and half of the cheese.
  9. Then do again with the remaining ingredients to create two layers.
  10. *If it seems like there is not enough sauce to you after the second layer you can just pour milk over the top to add a little more liquid.
  11. Cover the baking dish with a lid or foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  12. When that's up remove the covering and bake for another ten minutes.

Wow this sounds great. I'm a huge sweet potato fan. Saving for a special dinner. I usually use the microwave to cut down on cooking time for the potatoes and squash. I don't think it will hurt any in the casserole. Do you?


What a delightful combination, lulu! You get my ^10 and my thanks for this post ~ ~

Can't wait to try this! Inventively delicious flavor combinations...love the asiago cheese with the sweetness of the potatoes & squash and the touch of sage. Think I'll try this with ham for Easter!


Just saw these on the "Midwest Cooks" board & glad I checked out the recipe, looks good. Thank you for sharing!


I am so impressed with this lovely recipe. You most definitely deserve a HIGH 5!!!


Wow, I am impressed. Avery unique recipe idea. Do you grow your own sweet potatoes and squash? I'm not sure what climate you need for sweet potatoes.


I really like this recipe, it's good for me as I am diabetic and this looks like it has a lowish GI, and it also sounds delicious. (I'm not allowed mashed potatoes - sob).
Keeping this to try soon.
Hope you're well,
Susan


Two of my favorite foods! Can't wait to try this one, sounds awesome!
