I made this particular recipe last week for the first time. My kids ate it up, regardless of the fact that it had zucchini in it! Thanks for posting this.

BethM says
Great recipe. My daughter loved it. But after a while it seems too creamy. I made it with Fat Free milk and lite sour cream. Maybe switch soup to fat free and skip the sour cream? Any thoughts?
TheHappyHousewife says
Not sure, my kids love creamy….. maybe use some chicken broth instead of soup. I use the fat free soup most of time, because it is usually what is on sale.

I made this last week and didn’t tell my kids that there was zucchini in it. My oldest wouldn’t have cared, but the younger one would have looked to pick it out. I told my husband after he started eating it. My sons never noticed and my husband said he never noticed until the last bite when he saw a piece of it (he’s not a big fan either). My youngest said “this is great mom!” and the husband said it’s a grate 😉 idea to put shredded zucchini in so it’s not as noticeable. It got me wondering what else I can shred to add to our foods so my family wouldn’t notice, but we get more veggies. hehehe

MgMama says
I was wondering if this would be a good recipe for freezer cooking…will the sour cream and cream separate or does it freeze well?
