                       -sauce
  1 1/2   c            Corn kernels -- cooked
    1/4   c            Fresh parsley

  2       c            Zucchini -- grated
  2       c            Yellow squash -- grated
  4                    Scallions -- chopped
  4       c            Broccoli pieces -- bite-sized,
                       -and florets, steamed
  2       ts           Margarine

 Bring the water to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Stir in the rice,
 reduce the heat to a simmer, then cover and cook until the water is
 abosrbed, about 35 minutes. This may be done ahead of time.

 Heat the margarine in a large skillet. Add the chopped onion and
 saute over moderate heate until it is translucent. Add the diced
 bell pepper and saute over moderate heat until the onion is golden.
 Remove from heat.

 In a large bowl, combine the egg replacer with the soymilk,
 nutritional yeast cheesy sauce, corn kernels and herbs. Stir in the
 cooked rice and the onion mixture and mix well. Add salt and pepper
 to taste.

 In the same skillet, combine the grated squashes with just enough
 water to keep the bottom of the skillet moist. Cover and steam
 until wilted, about five minutes. Stir in the scallions.

 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

 Oil two 9x5x3" loaf pans, preferably glass. Assemble as follows:
 Transfer about one-fourth of the rice mixture to each of the loaf
 pans and pat in. Divide the steamed squash evenly betwen the two
 loaf pans and pat in over the rice mixture. Top each with the
 remaining rice mixture. Sprinkle the tops with bread crumbs.

 Bake for 60 minutes, or until the top and edges are golden and
 crusty.

 In the meantime, steam the broccoli until bright green and
 crisp-tender. Drain and toss the vegetable with the margarine.

 Once the loaves are done, cool for 10 minutes before slicing loaves
 into 8 or 10 slices each, allowing for two slices per person. To
 serve, arrange the slices in an overlapping circular pattern on a
 large platter. Place the broccoli in the center.
