Chicken Zucchini and Potatoes

We eat a lot of chicken in our house.  Sometimes it can get boring making the same things and hard to find something new. I mean how many different ways can you make it?  I also like to try and make things in either my crock pot or the oven, you know all in one dishes.  It's so much easier when you have a little one.  A little one who's determined to walk.  Crawling and pulling herself up on everything but that's a story for another day.

I found this recipe on www.allrecipes.com  it's my go to site.  I always find a great recipe.  Haven't had a flop yet.  It didn't call for chicken and really is a side dish, but I plumped it up with chicken to make it a main dish.  You really could make it with a bunch of different veggies for a vegetarian main dish.

I omitted the paprika also added....

2 skinless boneless chicken breasts cut into chunks

3 Italian long green peppers instead of red peppers because I didn't have any

1 cup of parmesan cheese

Other suggestions which I may try next time is 

1 packet of dry onion soup mix

variety of seasonal veggies 

sweet potatoe mixed with the white potatoes.

My husband and I really enjoyed it.  Nice flavor not too bland and not over powering.  Great fall/winter dish.  The zucchini almost takes on a cheesy texture.  Really yummy.  This one will be in the recipe rotation.

How do you keep dinner exciting?

Have a great weekend,
