Squash gratin









Squash Gratin Ingredients:

1 1/2 lb total, peeled, sliced butternut and acorn squash
1/2 cup half-n-half
sprinkle of nutmeg
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup crushed honey graham crackers
8 oz shredded white cheddar cheese
2 TB butter

Preheat oven to 375.  Spray a 2 QT dish with non stick spray.  Peel and slice squash. In a mixing bowl, toss squash with a light sprinkle of nutmeg.  Layer the squash and the cheese in the baking dish and add half-n-half.  Top with breadcrumbs and graham crackers.  Dot butter over breadcrumbs.  Bake at 375 until golden brown, about 45 minutes.  
**variation** I'm dying to try this with sautéed, sliced onions and apples mixed in with the squash!  

I think apples, onions and white cheddar is such a nice combination!  Let me know what you think!
