If your family likes vegetables as much as mine does, you'll like this recipe. Vegetables are so flexible, too, that you can substitute your family's favorites for those in this recipe. In our family, we all like zucchini, so I'm always trying to find some new ways to prepare it.

I didn't have the picante sauce so i added one banana pepper and 2 tbsp of rice vinegar and two chicken breasts cut up and 2 cups of rice and it was delicious as a main course.
