6 med size yellow squash

6 slices bacon

1 large onion, chopped

1 tsp grated green pepper

1 chicken bouillon cube

1/2 c boiling water

1 c dry breadcrumbs

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp celery salt

1/4 butter, melted

parmesan cheese

fresh parsley

Wash squas thoroughly. Place squash in boiling salted water to cover, simmer 10-15 minutes or until tender but still firm. Drain and cool slightly. Trim off stems. Cut squash in half lengthwise; remove and reserve pulp, leaving a firm shell, set aside.

Fry bacon until crisp; remove from pan and drain paper towels. Crumble bacon. Drain off bacon drippings, reserving 2 tablespoons in pan. Saute onion and green pepper in drippings until golden brown.

Add bouillon cube to 1/2 c boiling water; stir until dissolved. Combine bouillon mixture, bacon, onion and green pepper, breadcrumbs, 1 tsp salt, pepper, celery salt, butter and squash pulp; mix well.

Place squash shell in a 13 x 9 x 2" baking dish. Spoon pulp mixture into shells; sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Broil about 3 minutes or until lightly browned.

Serve on a bed of fresh parsley. Serves 6
