Punky's Squash and Stuff Casserole

"Another one of my "lets get rid of what we have on hand before it goes bad" dishes. Poor hubby use to get so nervous when I started doing things like this, but now he looks forward to seeing what I can throw together. I am only guess that it serves 6-8 we had it for a few nights and ended throwing a little away. I also say it takes 15-20 to make but that is if everything is already copped and the rice is cooked. I also served with a simple salad. Feel free to add anything or leave something out. My husband likes me to add chicken for a fuller meal."
