Preheat oven to 350. Lightly coat a 3 qt. rectangular baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cook potatoes, drain and mash. I use butter and milk, I also put in a couple cloves of pressed garlic. Spread mashed potatoes evenly in baking dish.

Blend roasted sweet peppers until smooth. Add sour cream and 1/4 t. salt. Stir until smooth and spread over mashed potatoes.

In a 12" skillet cook zucchini, yellow squash, peppers and onion in hot oil over med. heat until crisp/tender. Season with 1/2 t. salt. Spoon veggies on roasted pepper layer. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered 30 min. Let stand 10 min. before serving.
