Cream Cheese Basil Summer Squash Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 3)
Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2008
This became a 5-star review for the following reasons.....we bumped up the garlic to 3 cloves and used an Italian Seasoning Salt. We also, as suggested by other reviewers, drained the liquid before adding cream cheese(to cut the calories, we used a 1/3 less fat cream cheese). This was incredibly easy and friggin' awesome; it will be something we will make again and again as both a side dish or a main dish on those simple late nights.

Awesome!! Took a bunch of suggestions and sauteed the squash and garlic(added extra) in butter, used 4oz cream cheese and fresh basil. My squash didn't give off much water, so I added a bit to make more of a sauce and it was great. Hubby loved it and tried to swipe mine from my plate! Thanks for a great easy recipe.

Oops. I missed the basil. Oh well, I'm not a huge basil fan anyways. I used what I had in the house, just a small bit of zucchini squash. I too decided to sautee the squash along with one clove of pressed garlic. Once it was sauteed, I added a small amount of cream cheese along with a tiny handful of shredded parmesan cheese and I added fresh ground sea salt and fresh ground pepper. This was pretty darn good! I had no idea that zucchini and cream cheese went so well together!

My family didn't care for this recipe.It was bland. I cut back on the cream cheese as others recommended and used fresh basil but we weren't impressed.

Very quick and easy to prepare. We liked it. Though, I will try it with less cream cheese next time and add Rotel tomatoes as someone recommended.

Calls for too much cream cheese...I would use about half of what recipe calls for. Mine came out kinda watery, but still tasty.

It was only good when it was more solidified (served cool). It was kind of watery and gross when warm.

Drained the squash and cut the cream cheese in half. Nice change from the sauteed squash we usually eat. Will be using this recipe frequently.
