MICROWAVE-STEAMED ZUCCHINI
My daughter and I love zucchini this way. So easy....no chopping, dicing, etc. Give it a try, and use one zucchini, or as many as you need. I use non-fat spray, so extremely diet-friendly. Parmesan cheese or bacon bits are good additions.

MICROWAVE CHICKEN, ZUCCHINI AND STUFFING CASSEROLE
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!

Steps:
- 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.
- Add the soup, sour cream, chicken and black pepper to the vegetables, carefully stirring to blend without breaking up the zucchini.
- 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.

- Microwave on High for 8-10 minutes, rotating a quarter turn halfway through cooking. (If using the 6-cup ring pans, microwave about 4-6 minutes each, rotating halfway through cooking.) Bread looks dry and begins to pull away from side when cooked. Cool 10 minutes in the pan. Invert bread onto serving plate.
