Lynn's notes: Made this 11-12-97; used green, yellow and orange squashes (looked colorful); after stuffing, I topped with grated parmesan cheese.

Served with a dollop of sour cream on top. Great recipe! Recipe by: Taste of Home Annual Recipes 1998 Posted to TNT - Prodigy's Recipe Exchange Newsletter by WWGQ25C@... (MRS LYNN P THOMAS) on Nov 12, 1997
