I found this casserole to be too dry. I think it would have been better with a sauce or gravy.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. However, the chicken was cooked well and the zucchini was tender.

This casserole was easy to make and turned out delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the zucchini was still a little bit crunchy, just how I like it. I will definitely be making this again.
