Our family thought this was just okay. The shredding of the zucchini was a little time consuming. There was a little too much salsa and tomato juice and the zucchini kind of got lost in the mixture. The chicken was a little bland for our tastes. I think if you just chopped the zucchini, and didn't use quite as much sauce it would be better. I also think if there was a little salt added to the chicken it might add some more flavor. I love the garlic in the recipe. Thank you though. I do really LOVE your Recipe#325585 and your Recipe#230953 Made for Fall PAC 2008
