For a richer flavor, consider browning the butter before adding it to the casserole mixture. This adds a nutty depth to the dish. If you prefer a less traditional topping, crushed Ritz crackers or stuffing mix can be substituted for the bread crumbs. Feel free to add a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of hot sauce to the squash mixture for an extra layer of flavor. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. Just add a few minutes to the baking time if starting with a cold casserole.
