Zucchini Cakes

We saw the recipe on Sandra Lee this morning

Browned nicely


Crisp outside, nice and tender inside


Made zucchini Martinis with the juice squeezed out of the zucchini - nothing to waste!
  • recipe for the zucchini cakes?

    Here is zucchini boat recipe:
    Zucchini Boats

    Cut a zucchini in half lengthwise and trim a little off the bottom so it sit still in a baking dish***

    Scoop out the center where the seeds are with a spoon***

    Brush the surface with a mixture of crushed garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper*** (fresh garlic is really nice here...minced)

    Arrange halved grape tomatoes into the grooves, sprinkle with GF bread crumbs and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes***
    (I have used mostly regular tomatoes not grape)

    Remove and place diced fontina or mozzarella in between the tomatoes, place them back in, but now under the broiler til golden and bubbling***

    Remove and drizzle with sprinkling of grated parmesan. You will love this as a side dish or main dish.

    Daughter approved and she is not easy to please vegetarianwise.
  • Why don't zucchinis practice birth control. We planted two and have picked 47 so far this summer. Tonight I will scrap out the seeds and put a stuffing in the cavity.
    Love the zucchini cakes.
