Stuffed Zucchini

Yummy Yummy in my tummy!

 

Stuffed Zucchini
*1/2 C Bread Crumbs
*2 T grated Parmesan Cheese
*4 T butter
*1/2 C. onion chopped (hello....food processor)
* 1 Clove Garlic minced
*1 Tomato , peeled and chopped
*2 Zucchini, halved, scooped out.  Reserve shells and pulp.
*Salt and Pepper to Taste
** I added bell pepper and spinach.


Directions

Toss bread crumbs, cheese, and 2 Tablespoons of butter in a small dish.  Saute onion, bell pepper, and garlic in remaining 2 tablespoons butter until tender.  Add tomato, spinach, and zucchini pulp.  Mix well and heat through.  Place zucchini shells in a greased baking dish.  I put a bit of evoo and salt and pepper on the inside of the zucchini shells.  Fill the zucchini shells with stuffing.  Top with bread crumbs and bake covered at 350 for 30 minutes.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Zucchini isn't really in season right now, so my zucchini were really small.  I can't wait to pick some up fresh from our local farmers market.

I also can't get enough of sweet potato fries!  My favorite condiment to dip these little guys into is a fry sauce. [Shout-out Utah]  I made my fry sauce using BBQ sauce instead of ketchup to give it an extra kick. 

Fry Sauce
*BBQ Sauce (your favorite, I really love Famous Dave's)
*Mayo
*Seasoning Salt
*Salt & Pepper


1) Stir together a combo of 3 parts Mayo to 2 parts BBQ, depending on the amount you need.
2) Add seasoning salt, salt, and pepper to taste.  Remember you can always add more, so start small!


Enjoy!
