This was a underestimated recipe. Somehow this was a super power punched flavor blast. All the flavors came together and sprung out and sang to us. I can not wait to make this again. I followed the recipe: EXCEPT: No shrooms. Added cut up green pepper. The tomatoes went in the same time as the other veggies. Kinda of broke down but no regrets. What was the awesome flavor: I think the broth as we ll as garlic. Don't care but this is a keeper recipe.

I've made this a couple of times & I love the flavour of this dish, although I have altered the amounts of a few things. I use only 1/2 onion, 1 zucchini, & I completely omit the chicken broth, instead using 1 tsp. chicken OXO powder. I also leave out the salt. And it's absolutely fabulous with fresh mushrooms instead of canned ones. This will be making a regular appearance on my dinner table.
