    Summer Squash and Tomato Casserole. I have been looking for a zucchini casserole for years that tasted like one my mother used to make when I was younger. The Summer Squash and Tomato Casserole was the closest I have tasted (my mom’s recipe had onions). I like it much better without onions. It was delicious: Thank You from Central Massachusetts!
