Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups zucchini
- 1 cup carrots
- 0.5 cup onion
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 package (6 oz) herbed stuffing mix
- 0.5 cup butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Wash and slice the zucchini into thin rounds. Peel and shred the carrots. Finely chop the onion.
In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil and blanch the zucchini and carrots for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set them aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until well blended. Add the drained zucchini, carrots, and onion to the mixture and stir to coat.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the herbed stuffing mix to the butter and stir until evenly coated.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread half of the stuffing mix evenly over the bottom of the dish.
Pour the zucchini mixture over the stuffing layer and spread it evenly.
Top the casserole with the remaining stuffing mix, spreading it out to create a uniform layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is hot and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
