SEPTEMBER SQUASH CASSEROLE 
2 tbsp. olive oil
10 med. summer squash (sliced 1/4" thick)
Salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
Your favorite blend of salad herbs to taste
10 oz. sharp Cheddar cheese, sliced 1/4" thick
8 oz. Havarti, Monterey Jack or Swiss cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush 10 inch round casserole or souffle dish with oil. Arrange a layer of summer squash slices evenly in the bottom of the casserole. Top with a layer of onion and sprinkle with salt, pepper and herbs. Dot with slices of Cheddar cheese. Repeat the layers alternating the Havarti and Cheddar. Finish with a layer of cheese.
