Chicken Broccoli Cassarole

Today I wanted to be a little adventurous so I tried a new recipe from my favorite recipe website: http://www.allrecipes.com/
The thing I love most about this website (aside from it’s HUGE assortment of recipes) is the fact that each recipe is rated 0-5 stars and shows an average rating.
This recipe was rated 4.5 of 5 stars by 1204 people. After making it personally I would give it a 3.
Usually the rating system is pretty spot on, but this recipe was very dry which in reading the comments was normal and I hoped it would moisten when baking, but it didn’t all the way. The texture was kind of grainy for my liking, but the flavor was good. And for brownies that have zucchini in them they were good!
Here is the link for the recipe:

And here are my step by step pictures with the recipe:
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
Mix well

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
The mix will be VERY dry… pour it in a 9×13 greased pan

1/4 cup margarine
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
(I used butter)
Melt butter or margarine then mix all together.
*because the top of my brownies were so crumbly I had to double the frosting recipe*
