0:29
with you guys we've had our website
0:31
since what 2011 and I think we've shared
0:34
over 3,000 recipes but we jumped onto
0:37
YouTube to show you Instant Pot recipes
0:39
but now we're going to start
0:41
incorporating a lot of other some of our
0:44
favorites exactly so the recipe we're
0:46
making today is our chicken zucchini
0:48
casserole and our sister Camille has a
0:50
killer garden her husband's a gardener
0:52
they're way into it and every year she's
0:54
like "Please take some of my zucchini."
0:55
And they're like massive i wish I had
0:57
that problem i think I have like black
0:59
thumbs or I kill potted plants me too
1:02
but she's she was looking for a recipe
1:04
to use all her zucchini so we've got
1:06
zucchini bread recipes we have a ton of
1:08
zucchini recipes on the site but this is
1:10
one of our absolute favorite zucchini
1:12
recipes and not only that like our
1:14
audience loves this recipe i think it's
1:16
one of our most popular ones yeah it's
1:18
been our top
1:19
recipe for a couple months for good
1:22
reason it's easy you'll see the
1:24
ingredients it's super simple
1:26
ingredients but it's so good even our
1:28
picky eaters love it exactly my kids
1:30
don't even realize that they're eating
1:33
zucchini as they're eating this recipe
1:35
all right so we're going to first cut up
1:37
about four zucchini now if you love
1:39
zucchini and you want more you you can
1:41
always make it with like six zucchini
1:43
but we like about four cuz it's it's
1:45
pretty even and you you do the chopping
1:48
i'm going to tell you guys so Kristen
1:49
was talking about how we're all about
1:51
easy dinner and so a couple years ago we
1:54
decided we need to make dinner time
1:55
easier for everybody and the hardest
1:57
part about dinner at least for us is
1:59
we've each got four kids life is crazy
2:02
we work our husbands work we thought we
2:04
need to make dinner time easy for other
2:06
moms or busy parents working parents so
2:09
we developed a program it's a menu plan
2:11
program and every week we send out a new
2:13
menu plan tells you exactly what recipes
2:16
to make for the week and then you'll get
2:20
a recipe with a picture with a picture
2:23
so it'll show you what it's going to
2:24
look like bake dish recipes side dish
2:26
recipes dessert recipes new recipes
2:28
every single week and then it comes with
2:30
a detailed shopping list down to like
2:32
the half teaspoon and let me tell you I
2:35
hate menu planning like I hate it but if
2:38
I can be on Pinterest all day looking
2:40
for what recipes to make i mean even if
2:42
it's just for some ideas and then making
2:44
my shopping list since it comes with the
2:46
shopping list it's like okay so I I get
2:48
the email I print this out I'm like okay
2:50
I'm ready for the week or if you're like
2:52
I've already got all these spices you
2:54
can take those off your shopping list
2:56
we've had people cut their grocery bills
2:58
completely in half because they're not
3:00
throwing all this extra stuff in their
3:01
carts or they do the online grocery
3:04
shopping and make it that much easier so
3:06
that's at sixersmen plan.com we can put
3:09
a link to that there's sample plans
3:11
there so you you can check those out try
3:13
them we have five different plans
3:14
available i think my favorite one is the
3:17
healthy one we're trying to eat a little
3:19
bit healthier so there's actually So
3:21
there's what let me get this right so
3:22
there's a small healthy one and then
3:24
there's the the large family healthy one
3:27
so six to eight people are regular
3:28
healthy plants every recipe is 500
3:31
calories or less it has the nutrition
3:33
info and yeah just makes dinner time
3:36
that much easier cuz that's the last
3:38
thing we need is to worry about what's
3:39
for dinner exactly while Kristen's
3:41
chopping that I'll show you the topping
3:43
that goes on this chicken zucchini
3:45
casserole so you're just going to use a
3:46
package of stove top stuffing mix we're
3:50
using the chicken flavor cuz you can use
3:52
turkey too i kind of just The savory
3:54
one's really good too they just have one
3:56
that's not I didn't know they had meat
3:58
flavored so whole box of that obviously
4:01
uncooked and then we've got a/2 cup of
4:03
melted butter we're just pouring on top
4:06
okay so this will be this doubles as the
4:09
topping for the casserole as well as a
4:12
thickener in the casserole itself so
4:14
just mix that together and then you're
4:17
going to set aside about a/2 cup of this
4:20
stuffing and butter to sprinkle on top
4:23
okay you want to just put it in there
4:25
awesome okay so I finished up cutting
4:28
the zucchini now I like to cut it in
4:30
about bite-s size like bite size so my
4:32
kids can eat it and not have a huge
4:34
chunk of zucchini in their mouth so okay
4:36
zucchini's done put that aside okay
4:38
what's next so we're just going to mix
4:40
everything in one large bowl so the
4:41
zucchini Christen cut up how are we
4:44
going to do we're going to do it this
4:45
way there we go and pour that in just
4:47
manhandle it i like
4:49
it catch it
4:53
little mishap that's okay mixing
4:55
together and then I'm going to add the
4:57
stuffing mixture that remains after I
4:58
set that half cup aside perfect you're
5:01
going to want a large bowl we're going
5:02
to be pushing Yeah this one's going to
5:04
be pushing it with us a little
5:05
overflowing but that's okay and then
5:07
we've got one half onion that's just
5:09
been diced now if you love onions you
5:12
can add a whole onion but my kids kind
5:14
of struggle so we're we're making this
5:15
for the kids we're catering to the kids
5:17
and then three chicken breasts that have
5:18
been cooked and shredded or diced now
5:21
you can go the cheater route and get
5:23
like the rotisserie chicken they even
5:25
make rotisserie chickens that are
5:26
already cut and shredded for you i love
5:28
getting those when they're available all
5:30
right Kristen actually made this in the
5:32
Instant Pot i did cooked my chicken in
5:34
the Instant Pot this morning and then
5:36
we're doing a/2 cup of shredded
5:38
mozzarella now the mozzarella is not in
5:41
the recipe but I like to add a little
5:42
cheese add a little flavor to it and
5:44
then we had a/2 cup of sour
5:47
cream so really this is low fat low
5:50
calories not really good party comfort
5:54
food that your picky eaters will like
5:56
and then just one can of cream of
5:58
chicken soup right all right do you want
5:59
to get that spoon for me
6:02
okay
6:05
so we're just going to mix this together
6:07
nice in our too small a bowl very very
6:11
carefully do you want to do it or do you
6:12
want me i trust you guys
6:17
guys so sometimes when I am in a big
6:21
hurry I'll actually spray my pan dump
6:23
everything in the pan and mix it in the
6:25
pan just so it's one less bowl I have to
6:27
do and this is a recipe you could make
6:29
ahead of time a lot of time I'll get my
6:31
dinner all prepped while my kids are at
6:32
school or a toddler's napping get it to
6:35
this point before it's baked and just
6:37
stick it in your fridge and then you
6:39
could throw it in at dinner time so your
6:41
oven would be preheating to 350 mhm and
6:44
then it cooks for 40 to 50 minutes so
6:46
plan
6:47
accordingly as to how much time you need
6:49
to get it right and I love this too
6:51
because it usually So I have a family of
6:54
six i have four little girls and a
6:55
husband who eats for like three people
6:58
but this will feed us twice like I love
7:01
having the leftovers of it and it's
7:03
filling enough like you've got a
7:04
vegetable you've got protein some carbs
7:08
some trifecta there we go all right the
7:12
struggle is real here but we're getting
7:14
it it's okay okay and it all kind of
7:16
melts together when it bakes that it's
7:19
This is a super forgiving recipe if
7:21
you're just starting out cooking this
7:23
chicken zucchini casserole is quick easy
7:26
it's a crowd-pleaser i like to make this
7:29
and give it to people when they have
7:30
babies or people in the neighborhood who
7:32
need a meal this is a good meal to bring
7:33
to people okay I'm going to give you the
7:35
spoon and I'm going to hold the bowl so
7:36
we're just putting in the pan that's
7:39
been sprayed with the non-stick cooking
7:41
spray and then spread it out yes and
7:43
then that half cup of topping you
7:45
reserved oh yeah the stuffing the
7:48
stuffing and butter is just going to go
7:50
right on top thank you
7:53
and this will make like a nice crunchy
7:56
crispy topping now if you could also
7:59
save the cheese and put the cheese on
8:01
top and then the stuffing or you can
8:03
incorporate the cheese in like we did so
8:05
either way it tastes amazing can't go
8:07
wrong all right we're going to stick
8:09
this in the oven for about 45 50 minutes
8:12
uncovered 40 to 50 minutes okay perfect
8:15
okay so cooked in the oven for about
8:17
what 40 minutes or so 40 minutes at 350
8:20
nice oh and okay let's check the
8:22
zucchini yeah zucchini is like perfectly
8:24
done i love how it's Oh sorry look how
8:26
it's not soggy because typically when
8:28
you cook with zucchini it gets really
8:30
soggy but the stuffing just soaked it
8:32
all up perfect consistency
8:35
