Three Sisters Casserole

"The American Indians in this region call corn, beans, and squash the 'Three Sisters' becasue, when planted together, the nourish eachother and protect eachother from garden pests. I reccomend Acorn or Pattypan squash. The squash in this recipe can, however be sustituted with potatoes. Still delicious!"

I'm 14 years old, and the oldest sibling in my house. My mother, a long-time pastry chef and baker inspired me to cook and bake when I was a kid. I cook or bake something at least once a day, and not becaue I need to! I use the Better Homes and Gardens, Moosewood, and the Joy of Cooking, but the better part of my recipes come from Recipezaar!
