SQUASH CASSEROLE WITH CRUNCHY PECAN TOPPING



Squash Casserole with Crunchy Pecan Topping image

My mom always made this at Thanksgiving, and it was loved by everyone! It is a great alternative to candied yams or sweet potato casserole. If you don't use all the topping, you can freeze the rest for future use.
