Zucchini Casserole Deluxe

I don’t normally cook vegetables with the sort of accoutrements (translation: expensive stuff) that this recipe suggests. Doing so on a regular basis would send my food costs soaring. Taken together, the condensed cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and herb-seasoned stuffing mix are costly. On the plus side, this delicious microwave recipe makes a pleasant change of pace. With the ingredients doubled or tripled and the cooking time slightly extended, this zucchini dish would be an excellent choice for a special dinner such as Thanksgiving or Christmas. 

Zucchini Casserole Deluxe:

1-½ c. sliced zucchini, unpeeled and in ½-in. pieces
½ c. coarsely chopped carrots, peeled
¼ c. chopped onions
3 tbsp. butter or margarine
¼ c. dairy sour cream 
½ - 10-oz. (284 mL) condensed cream of chicken soup
1 c. herb-seasoned stuffing mix, divided
2 green onions, chopped fine, as garnish

Spray-grease 8-in. square microwave-safe casserole dish, placing  prepared vegetables in it and topping with butter. Cover tightly with cello wrap, turning one corner slightly back to vent steam. Cook 2 min. in microwave at high setting. In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, condensed soup, and ½ c. stuffing mix. Gently stir into vegetables. Top with remaining ½ c. stuffing mix. Cook 6 min. in microwave at high setting. Serve hot, topped with finely chopped green onions.
