Zucchini Gumbo (Crock-Pot) image

This soup/gumbo is good.Instead of the usual okra this uses zucchini. The original recipe called for file powder which I couldn't find - so skipped. Adapted from Fresh from the Vegetarian Cookbook. Without the rice this is only 2 WW points.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The gumbo was too watery and the vegetables were not cooked through. I would not recommend this recipe.

This gumbo was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland and the zucchini was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I was pleasantly surprised. The gumbo was delicious and the zucchini added a nice touch of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up all the zucchini from your garden. The gumbo is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
