I absolutely LOVE this dish. I left out the Zuccini because my children aren't too big a fan of it. And it still tastes AMAZING. And after I'm done it's an easy leftover for later,(that's if its not all gone the first time around,) I just pop it in a Tupperware dish, and into the fridge it goes. I've taken this dish to countless potlucks because I get requests for it all the time. You gotta be fast when you set this on a table, because before long, it'll be gone.

I did not use the 2(14.5-ounce) cans diced tomatoes with basil, garlic, and oregano...cause my BF don't like tomatoes. But it is so good.

Very easy and very yummy. I made as instructed except for adding more carrots and less zucchini. It immediately went into the make again file.
