I turn to this recipe whenever I have an excess of zucchini and it never fails to make my hubby happy when it's on the menu. I tweaked the original recipe to cut down on fat and time. You could also add shredded carrot and substitute any kind of stuffing mix. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 7 to 8 cups diced zucchini
  • 1 medium bell pepper, any color, diced
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup, any kind (10 3/4 oz. size)
  • 1 cup sour cream, any kind
  • 2 to 3 cups diced, cooked chicken
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 6 oz. packages chicken-flavored stuffing mix

How To Make microwave chicken, zucchini and stuffing casserole

  • Step 1
    Combine zucchini, bell pepper and onion in 3-quart microwaveable casserole. Cover and cook on Full Power for 13 to 16 minutes, until crisp-tender. The vegetables may give off quite a bit of liquid; this is fine. Do not drain them.
  • Step 2
    Add the soup, sour cream, chicken and black pepper to the vegetables, carefully stirring to blend without breaking up the zucchini.
  • Step 3
    Next, fold in the stuffing mix and any flavor packet it may come with. (Some brands have the herbs/spices already mixed in.) Cover the casserole and heat on Full Power for an additional 7 to 10 minutes. The stuffing should absorb the moisture from the cooked vegetables and the soup and sour cream.
