This is a lovely,  creamy yellow-orange squash casserole! This makes a light but
rich casserole with a blend of nutty, spicy, sweet, creamy flavors.  A friend of
ours says "This jumps all over my tongue!"  It has become a staple at our 
Thanksgiving table.

--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      cups          applesauce
     1/4  cup           brown sugar
     1/2  teaspoon      salt
     1/2  cup           heavy cream
   1 1/4  cups          butternut squash -- cooked and mashed
     1/4  teaspoon      nutmeg
   6      tablespoons   butter -- melted

     1/2  cup           slivered almonds

Mix together applesauce, brown sugar, salt, heavy cream, squash, nutmeg, 4 
tablespoons of the melted butter, and eggs.  Place in buttered, shallow, 1 1/2

and the almonds.  Sprinkle over squash.  (This can be made a day ahead of time 
up to this point.  Refrigerate or freeze until ready to bake.)  Bake uncovered 
at 375 degrees F for 35 minutes.  (If casserole is frozen, bake for 60 minutes 
instead of 35 minutes.)
