SQUASH RICE CASSEROLE (COOKING LIGHT)
This hearty (but healthy) vegetarian main is based on a recipe from "Cooking Light" magazine. This recipe works well with substitutions. You can use whatever vegetables you have on hand (eg. substituting another squash for the zucchini). It's a good make-ahead recipe; you can assemble it all ahead of time and then just put it in the oven before dinner-time. Enjoy!
