    Recipe by Chefmeow: Tex Mex Summer Squash Casserole/saved
    Use a spoon when a fork just won't do.
    A lot of liquid is released from the squash with nowhere to go. Fits in a 9x13 nicely but reduces down to half when the water is released. I suggest adding a couple of eggs to try to keep structure in the casserole.
    Lots of good flavor. To keep a lid on the heat index I used 2 cans of diced green chiles instead of going to a can of jalapenos. In hind sight maybe it could use a little of the can of jalapeno.
    Added the scallions and red onion in with the cheese for the last half hour bake instead of adding them raw at the end. Personal preference.

    This one is a bit different. No cream of something soup. I may be able to handle something like that. I don't do cream soups. I've never tried cheese on squash.

    Crackers or bread crumbs might sop up the water and an egg or two to hold the shape.
