POTATO STUFFED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Note -- Potatoes -- Well, you can use some leftover mashed potatoes, you can even buy deli mashed or even the frozen mashed. You could always use even Hungry Jack boxed for this although that would be my last choice.
• Personally I would peel a couple of russet potatoes, dice and put in a bowl with a teaspoon of water, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 5 minutes until soft. Mash and add some milk/cream/broth and some butter and you have fresh potatoes. Just make 2 cups and set to the side in a medium size bowl.
• Zucchini -- Cut the ends off and cut lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and discard them. Then scoop out some of the pulp, and keep about 8 tablespoons to mix with the potatoes. Make sure to scoop out enough pulp so you can stuff with the filling. If the the zucchini doesn't sit flat, just cut a little piece off the bottom so it can set flat. Add the 8 tablespoons of the zucchini pulp to the potatoes.
• Bacon -- In a small saute pan, cook the bacon until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel to drain and set to the side and then add to the potatoes and zucchini mix.
• Onion -- In the same pan with 1 teaspoon of the bacon drippings, cook the onion and garlic until lightly brown, just a couple of minutes. Remove and add that to the bowl with the potatoes, zucchini, and bacon.
• Stuffing -- Mix the the potatoes, zucchini, onion and bacon well, add any salt and pepper if necessary and add the parsley and mozzarella cheese. Stuff each zucchini half.
• Topping -- To seed the tomatoes, simple cut the plum tomatoes in half and then squeeze. Most of seeds should just fall out. Then chop. This way you get rid of the bitter seeds and most of the juice.
• Add the tomatoes, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and olive oil in a small bowl until well combined. Top each zucchini with the breadcrumb, tomato and cheese mixture.
• Bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes until the zucchini is tender and the bread crumbs are golden brown.

STUFFED ZUCCHINI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large pot, boil 1 cup (240 ml) water with rice for 8 minutes. Then, drain the water and, in the same pot, add all of the ground beef mixture and stir well.
• With a sharp mandolin, peel even strips of the zucchini, cover with salt for 5 minutes (to draw out moisture), then rinse.
• Place 1 tsp ground beef mixture on each layer of zucchini, roll into a sphere, and place roll back into the pot. Repeat with remaining zucchini strips.
• Combine sauce ingredients in a separate bowl. Then, pour half of the sauce onto the rolls and cook on the stovetop for 20 minutes on medium heat.
• Add the remaining sauce and finish off the dish in the oven at 350°F for 20 more minutes.
• Serve warm.

SHEPHERD'S PIE-STYLE STUFFED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• In a large skillet set over high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of oil until very hot. Add the lamb, season it lightly with salt and pepper and cook, stirring and breaking up the chunks of meat, until lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the lamb from the skillet, drain and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice the zucchini in half, lengthwise, and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh from its center, leaving "boats" with sides that are about 1/3 of an inch thick. Place the boats in a large roasting pan and set aside. Dice the zucchini flesh and set it aside.
• Return the skillet in which the lamb has cooked to medium-high heat and add the remaining tablespoon of oil, the diced zucchini flesh, onions, garlic, thyme, coriander and cinnamon. Cook until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add the wine and cook until all the liquid has evaporated. Add the lamb and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle the zucchini boats with salt and divide the lamb mixture between the boats, packing it gently in and mounding slightly if necessary. Cover the top of each boat with a layer of mashed potatoes and dust with bread crumbs. Pour the chicken stock into the roasting pan, being careful not to wet the tops of the zucchini. Bake until the boats are soft and the potatoes are browned on top, about 40 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve.
