Cheesy Bacon Baked Squash is well, just what it sounds like. It is cheese and bacon smothered squash.

Now doesn’t that sound wonderful? It is! 🙂

Add some sour cream and some sliced green onions when serving and it is a amazing side dish.

This recipe is adapted from delish.com’s Loaded Zucchini Skins. The skins were just really hard and we didn’t like that at all so I made some changes. Now we think it is just right. 🙂

There is so much you can do with squash! And it is a good thing because if you have a garden, or your neighbor has a garden, or your parents have a garden. . . you get the idea.

It is wonderfully prolific stuff! And that is OK because there is so much you can do with it!
