We have been getting squash from our garden for a while. Like you Suzanne when the squash first started making, I started looking for recipes on the internet. Mostly fried and that same old squash casserole. Your recipe sounded different.
Scalloped squash Hum. I made it for supper last night. So so good. It tasted a lot like dressing, but better than most of the dressing I have ever made. Your looked prettier than mine, but it was delicous. This is one recipe I will be making and making. Great ideal and super recipe.

do you drain the squash after cooking and before adding to the liquid mix??

No, cooked in butter, it doesn’t need to be drained. (If you decided to cook it in water instead, you would need to drain.)
