Butternut Squash Casserole ### Ingredients:

2 medium-sized butternut squashes, peeled and cubed
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup of vegetable broth
1 cup of shredded cheese (cheddar or your favorite blend)
1 teaspoon of thyme
1 teaspoon of sage
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for sautéing
1 cup of breadcrumbs (optional for topping)

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, thyme, and sage, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the cubed butternut squash and vegetable broth to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cover, cooking for about 15-20 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
Once the squash is cooked, transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl. Stir in half of the shredded cheese.
Spread the butternut squash mixture into a greased casserole dish. If desired, sprinkle breadcrumbs on top for a crunchy texture.
Top the casserole with the remaining cheese, then cover with foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your tasty and wholesome Butternut Squash Casserole!
