Tasted OK but No eye appeal. Maybe if it was wrapped in a tortilla and topped with the sour cream and chives. Needed salt and some herbs so I added thyme and parsley It would have been more appealing if layered and topped with cheese then browned under the broiler.I also divided the butter cooking 1 tablespoon with the mushrooms and three with the zucchini and peppers.Garlic would have been a good thing.
