Squash rice gratin

My friend forwarded Zucchini rice gratin recipe The good thing about recipes from friends is that they come with dos and donts like this one came with the 'Dont slice the Zucchini too thin or it will burn'.
She had also sent a picture of the dish with the bright red tomatoes on top.
For a while now, I have been wanting to cook Squash. After seeing dozens of squash soups and other recipes, I had few waiting for the great inspiration which happens to be substituting Zucchini in the Rice Gratin. If I hadnt added my personal touch of burning the garlic, it would have not added to the bitterness of squash which bothered my husband more. As the maker, I had to shut up and just eat.
I could claim that my attention was split with split my bill or baby's wails but I cant kid - I was lazing on the couch, letting the fire do its magic and only when my nose figured some burnt .. oh onions.. I knew I messed up.
