1/2 cup chopped green peppers
1/2 cup chopped sweet red peppers
2 eggs
1 cup plain yogurt
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 dash cayenne pepper (optional)
1/4 cup sunflower seeds

Directions:
Cut squash in half; discard seeds. Place squash cut side down in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 375F for 35-40 minutes or until tender; cool slightly. Carefully scoop out squash; place in a bowl and mash.
In a skillet, saute onion and garlic in butter until tender. Add peppers; saute until crisp-tender. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and yogurt until blended. Stir in squash, onion mixture, feta cheese, salt, pepper and cayenne if desired. Transfer to a greased 11-in. x 7-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with sunflower kernels.
