Recipe: Stuffed Zucchini


What you'll need: 

1 medium zucchini
3 large fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
1 green onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons white onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
2 TBSP chicken or vegetable broth
salt and pepper to taste
2 teaspoons grated Cheddar cheese


What to do: 

Cut zucchini in half lengthwise. Scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4-in. shell. 

Add butter, diced mushrooms, white onion and green onion to saute pan. Chop zucchini pulp and add to other vegetables in saute pan. Saute vegetables for 5 minutes or until tender. Add broth, salt and pepper, simmer 3 minutes or until broth is gone.

Place zucchini shells in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Remove zucchini shells from water and fill shells with mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake in a 400F oven for 10 minutes. 

 Of course if you don't like mushrooms you can pretty much add anything you want to stuff zucchini.
