Zucchini Boats

What do you do with loads of zucchini?

 

Make Zucchini Boats of course!

 

And, this has got to be one of the best ways to eat your veggies.

 

 

 

Zucchini Boats

 

 

2 zucchinis, washed and cut in half

 

1 box of stuffing mix

 

1 package Italian sausage

 

2 sliced tomatoes

 

 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

 

1/4 cup cheddar cheese

 

4 Tbsp. Italian bread crumbs

 

salt and pepper to taste

 

 

 

First preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Cut your zucchini in half and scoop out the pulp. 

 

 Boil your zucchini in a large pot of water for approximately 3-5 minutes or until zucchini is soft.

 

 Prepare your stuffing mix according to package directions.  Set aside. 

 

 In a large skillet cook your sausage until fully cooked and golden brown.  Stir in the stuffing. 

 Mix in the cheddar cheese.

 

Spoon a good portion of the sausage stuffing mix into each half of the zucchini.  Place into a lightly greased baking dish.

 

Now, sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese and top with the sliced tomatoes. 

Sprinkle with the bread crumbs and the salt and pepper.

 

Cover with foil wrap and bake for 30-35 minutes, take off the foil

and bake another 10 minutes or until

cheese is melted and heated all the way through.

 

I ended up making my own version of this after looking at numerous recipes for these.

 

I hope you give these a try, you won't regret it!

 

Have a great week!
