  • 2 cups onions-chopped
  • 1 garlic clove-minced
  • 3 cups zucchini-diced
  • 2 cups mushrooms-sliced
  • 3 cups chicken-cooked & diced
  • 1 cup uncooked brown or white rice

  • salt and pepper
  • 2 cups chopped tomatoes
  • 1/4 tsp. chili powder

Preparation:

Heat 3 tbsp. of the oil in a large saute pan, and saute 1 cup of the onions with the garlic for 2 minutes. Add the zucchini and mushrooms, and saute for 3 minutes more. Combine the vegetables with the chicken, rice, broth, and spices, and the cheese. Mix and season to taste with salt & pepper. Place this mixture in a greased 9x13 baking dish.
