Here is a great squash casserole that anyone will eat, even those who "dont like" squash!

Squash Casserole

About 6-8 diced and boiled squash.
Drain and mash with butter.
Add about 2 cups cheese of your choice and about 1 cup bread cubes of your choice.
Salt and pepper
2 eggs
Mix it all up, pour into a greased casserole dish and bake at 375 about 30 minutes.
You can also put a sprinkle of panko on top if you want a crunchy top for it.

    8 tortillas
    4 oz cheese (or vegan cheese)- cheddar, jack, queso fresco or similar.
    Filling-
    2 tblsp oil of your choice (I use evoo)
    4 or so cloves of garlic
    ½ onion
    1.5 tblsp oregano (yes, it’s a lot.)
    5 large carrots
    2 cans drained low sodium black beans
    1 cup salsa (I use the premade stuff from the refrigerated section, but making your own would be better)
    Sauce-
    16oz low sodium tomato puree
    2 cups low sodium vegetable stock
    2 tbsp chili powder (again, yes, that’s a lot)
    1tsp cumin
    1tsp smoked paprika
    2 tsp garlic salt, or sauteed garlic, 3 cloves, if you prefer

    Sauce:
    Add all ingredients to saucepan, let simmer 20 minutes, stir occasionally

    Filling:
    Grate carrots
    Sautee garlic and onions over medium heat in oil
    Add carrots and oregano, let cook down until not quite crunchy (about 15 minutes)
    Meanwhile, blend black beans, reserving half to a quarter (depending on how much bean texture you want)
    Add black beans and salsa to carrot mixture, stir to blend flavors (about 5 minutes) and remove from heat.

    Enchiladas:
    Preheat oven to 275f
    Put just enough sauce to cover bottom of large casserole pan.
    Roll filling into tortillas, like a burrito, divide as evenly as possible.
    Put these tightly into pan
    Cover with sauce, making sure to get all edges and sides.
    Cover with cheese
    Put in oven until bubbly and delicious
    Serve with greek yogert, avocado or guac

    makes 8 at aprox 375 calories each, super filling, reheats well.

    Chicken Ball Casserole
    This one is my kids favorite.
    1LB ground chicken breast, mix with a cup of wholewheat bread crumbs, one egg, salt & pepper, half a grated onion. Mix well then roll into little balls about 1.5 inch diameter (get the kids to help with this it takes a while lol). Brown balls in a pan with Pam cooking spray then put in casserole dish.

    Mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with enough low sodium chicken broth to cover the chicken and pour over the chicken balls. Add Sliced carrots. I like to add a tablespoon of Red Current jelly but not necessary.
    Cook in medium heat oven (around 350) for about 1 hour.
