Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This casserole can be made with either all zucchini or summer squash.
  • tip 2
    Use leftover cooked brown rice or make some fresh for this recipe. You can also find already cooked brown rice in the freezer section by the vegetables or in shelf-stable pouches in the rice aisle.
  • tip 3
    If you don't have a lid for your casserole—no worries. Simply cover with aluminum foil.
  • tip 4
