Vegetarian Zucchini Boats

One idea is to turn them into Stuffed Zucchini Boats! Or you could make something sweet like Cinnamon Zucchini Cake , Chocolate Zucchini Donut Muffins , Zucchini Brownies , or Zucchini Cream Cheese Muffins!

What You’ll Need

4 Zucchini

2 Eggs, Beaten

1 3/4 cup Bread, Torn into Small Pieces

1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese, Grated

1/4 cup Onion, Chopped

2 tbsp Parsley Flakes

1 1/4 tsp Salt + 1/4 tsp

Butter

Parmesan, Grated

How to Make Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Scrub 4 zucchini’s (6 – 7″ long). Cut off ends. (Do not peel the zucchini.)

Cook in boiling, salted water until just tender. (Do not overcook.)

Cut zucchini in half, lengthwise. Remove center part of zucchini with the tip of a spoon and place in a bowl. Turn zucchini boats hollow side down on a paper towel to drain.

Combine 2 beaten eggs, 1 3/4 cup soft bread torn into small pieces, 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, and 1 1/4 tsp salt with the centers of the zucchini already in the bowl.

Place zucchini hallow side up in greased 9 x 13 pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt.

Distribute filling into each boat evenly. Dot each boat with a little butter and sprinkle with Parmesan.

Bake for 35-45 minutes or until tops are brown.

Bread – Just use regular bread, not the bread crumbs in a bag from the store.

Making Ahead – It’s best to eat these the same day. Because zucchini contain so much water, they could end up being soggy if you make them ahead of time.
