Rice & Sausage Stuffed Zucchini image

This was inspired by all the zucchini from the garden, and leftover rice. It is especially good with Basmati rice. I make some without tomatoes for my husband, who has a thing about tomatoes.

The zucchini boats were a bit difficult to stuff. I think I would cut them in half lengthwise next time so that they would be easier to fill.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less oil next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe and I liked the flavors.

The zucchini boats were a bit soggy for my liking. I think I would cook the zucchini for a few minutes less next time. Otherwise, the dish was very flavorful and enjoyable.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and onion to the stuffing and it helped a lot. Overall, it was a good dish, but I would make a few changes next time.

This dish was easy to make and very flavorful. I used a spicy sausage and it gave the stuffing a nice kick. The zucchini boats were a great way to present the dish.

I substituted ground turkey for the sausage and it was still delicious. This dish is a great way to sneak some veggies into your kids' meals. They gobbled it up!
