This recipe is excellent!! We altered it by using (2) 14 oz cans of diced tomatoes with garlic and onions. We found by using two cans instead of one it turned out more moist. We definitely recommend this recipe. It has become one of our favorites!!!!Â

Absolutely delicious! I had an overabundance of squash this year and it was really a treat to prepare this dish, very easy and the kids LOVED it! They said they no longer want me to make it the old way (sauteed in butter) and asked if I could make it this way from now on.Â

I made this to take to our church's social. Folks RAVED about it!! I have to make copies of this recipe to hand out. Not one person that tried this disliked it. There wasn't even a bite left and that was the first time that happened to me. This will be a special occasion dish (and a "just because" dish) that will become a tradition with my family. Thanks a bunch for a delicious recipe!! Shelly P.Â

This is a really good recipe--and like always, I made a few changes. I used one 28 oz can of diced tomatoes (and think I will drain it a little bit next time). I also used 1 cup of Italian-style breadcrumbs instead of the bread and 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend instead of the oregano. To make it a complete meal, I added 1 lb of sliced Italian sausage. Next time, I might try using croutons--and there will be a next time! This is a keeper!Â

This was much better than I expected it to be! I used two medium yellow squash and one small zucchini, one can of diced tomatoes, plus a diced fresh tomato as well, four fat slices of kalamata olive loaf, and butter instead of margarine. I also omitted the bell peppers. And to make it a vegetarian main course, I added diced tempeh as well, when I added the tomatoes. The tempeh was an excellent addition. My toddlers ate it up and my husband and I both had second helpings. Fantastic!Â

What a refreshing alternative to cheesy, fatty squash casserole. The texture and flavor of this dish are incredible. I also subbed rotfl for one can of tomatoes. Added 1 clove fresh pressed garlic instead of garlic salt. ExcellentÂ

This makes a really good and healthy side dish.I use olive oil instead of the margarine. I've made this twice last month for my family, and I imagine it would work well as a pot luck dish. Surprisingly filling too with whole grain bread cubes!Â

This has the taste I remember from my childhood. Just like mom's! I used butter instead of margarine and opted for all squash. Very delicious. I really over toasted my bread cubes but it still tasted excellent. I may try for half the butter next time just to make it healthier - but it by no means tasted greasy. Maybe I'll add the second can of tomatoes as other reviews have suggested. Great recipe.Â
