  1. Preheat oven to 350°FGrease an 8″ x 8″ baking dish and set aside.
  2. Clean and trim brussels sprouts. Cut large ones in half.Score each with an “x” underneath to help with even cooking.
  3. Steam brussels sprouts and squash separately until just tender.(Note: to save a pot, I started steaming the squash and then added the sprouts to the top of the same pot when the squash was half done and steamed them together; that worked out fine).Set squash and sprouts aside.
  4. While squash and sprouts cook, chop onion and mince celery.Saute onion in butter/margarine.Add milk and spices slowly, stirring to keep mixture smooth.Bring sauce to the boil, then remove from heat and taste to adjust seasonings if needed.
  5. In the 8″ x 8″ greased baking dish, arrange the squash cubes on bottom.Next, make an even layer of the brussels sprouts. Then, sprinkle the chopped celery over the top, pour the sauce over the whole thing and finish with a sprinkling of nutmeg.
  6. Bake in the 350F oven for 30 minutes or until the top is slightly browned (well, to your liking) and the sauce is bubbly.
