i stumbled upon the recipe for stuffed zucchini from good ‘ole pinterest. all the ingredients fell right into the 17-day diet guidelines so i whipped it up for an easy weekend meal. i was so giddy while eating the first bite, it was so damn good. i actually took the filling out and mixed it into my rice and it was to.die.for. thank you kayotic kitchen for this yummy recipe!
ingredients:
1 TB fat-free sour cream
1/4 – 1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp curry powder
10 grape tomatoes finely diced
1 tsp italian seasoning
2 zucchini
1 onion
cheese
pepper
directions:
preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
rinse your zucchini. slice in half length-ways. spoon out the guts until you have an empty boat.
dice your zucchini pulp, tomatoes and onions.
in a skillet saute the onions with 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter until translucent. add in curry and mix for 30 seconds. spoon onions into the bowl with zucchini and tomato. add in seasonings and sour cream. mix until combined.
take your zucchini boat and spoon filling in. top with your cheese of choice. i used reduced fat parmesan and a sprinkle of cheddar.
bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees. turn the broiler on and cook for another 5 minutes until the cheese starts to get brown and bubbly.
i served the stuffed zucchini with a 1/4 cup of brown rice. next time i make this i plan on adding quinoa into the filling mix. DELISH!
