Stuffed Zucchini - Nancy

Cut 2 small squash, lengthwise, and scoop out middle, leaving about 1/2" meat in shell.

Put middle in a large bowl and add 1/2 lb hamburger, 1 cup uncooked rice, 1.2 cup chopped onion, 1 large tomato (chopped) or speghetti sauce, 2 Tbsp chopped parsley, salt and pepper and garlic to taste

Put squash shells in a baking pan and fill with middle mixture. Put enough water in the bottom of the pan to come halfway up the shell. Cover and bake at 350 for about an hour or until tender

Boy, pulling all of these recipes from my personal site is making my mouth water for squash! I don't have any this year, for the first time in years. My garden failed me this time. I think I'll have to go to the Farmer's Market and get some!

I would give you some if only you lived closer

Substitute zucchini for eggplant in any good Eggplant Parmesan recipe!

Logan,

I just LOVE WW's recipes, don't you?? There's one for baked scallops with butter and bread crumbs. It's easy and QUICK!!! Not to mention YUMMY!!

1lb of fresh sea scallops (the big ones)
Clean with fresh water
Put bread crumbs in a bag with the scallops and coat them.
Put them in a lightly greased pie plate
Pour the breaded scallops with drawn butter
Bake for 20 minutes at 375.

Serve with steamed Asparagus and rice.

If you are really energetic you can grate some of the zucchini squeeze the water out of it and freeze it. Then during the winter you have it available to make zucchini bread, etc.

I do this, too!!! It is great.

RICHARD - you're the only man to post here so far...so there isn't an example of what you are talking about.

And you can't post one now - no fair!

I've made zucchini pancakes and loved them.

Same recipe as potato pancakes except substitute shredded "squeezed" zucchini for potatotes. They are cooked the same....in a frypan.....and I top mine with sour cream. Yummy!

Logan the recipes sound delicious. My printer is broken so I will have to write some of these out by hand.

Vegetables Italiano (from a Contadina can of stewed tomatoes)

2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 cup julienne-cut carrots steamed
3/4 cup halved and sliced onion
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 3/4 cups (14.5 ounce can) Italian style stewed tomatoes and juice
3 cups sliced zucchini
1 cup button mushrooms, halved
1/4 tsp salt or to taste
1/8 tsp ground black pepper

In a large skillet, heat oil, saute carrots, onion and garlic for 2 -3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in tomatoes and juice, zucchini, mushrooms, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 - 6 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.

When we make this, we like to serve it over cooked rice or potatoes. I generally substitute regular mushrooms, sliced, s I always have them on hand.

Bah! I don't have the patience to read through all of these tonight so I'm subscribing to it.

Hopefully I'm not duplicating anything (but i did see one similar i REALLY want to try... I think it was the Au Grauten)

I like this simple one...

Slice zucchini into two or three millimeter thick slices.

Heat generous amounts of oil, butter, or margarine in pan. Fry Zucchini.

Half way through to preferred tenderness add generous amounts of Parmesan cheese.

Voila!

It's something close to what my mother used to make. From tastebud memory I experimented and passed this on to S.O. (You know... like learning music by ear.) I think she may have also added a bit of salt and pepper. ?
