"The title of this vegetable-rice dish refers to the colors in the dish which are similar to autumn foliage--however, you can eat it year-round (as long as you have summer squash available to you at the grocery store). Zucchini can be substituted for some or all of the summer squash. I use the no-sodium type of bouillon, which works just fine and can really cut down on the recipes overall sodium content. The cooking time shown does not include time to cook rice, so add this if you're not using left-over rice."
