It looks like a lot but when it cooks down, it cooks down! You will be amazed! Don't forget to take the squash off the grill! It should be firm but have nice grill lines for presentation.

Now that the squash is off the grill & the filling is done we need to char the peppers! This is the easiest way to remove the skin. When all sides are seared, remove and let cool before removing skin.

$Add peppers to individual bowls with a tablespoon each of saut\u00e9d onions, 2 tablespoons beef or vegetable broth , 1 tablespoon sour cream, tablespoon of olive oil & dash of S & P. Blend until creamy.$

Fill the grilled squash with the Swiss chard mixture and top with goat cheese. Place gently in the middle of the plate.

Garnish with chopped basil and chives. Enjoy!
