Sausage Stuffed Zucchini


Each week I get a box of local farm veggies and fruits from The Produce Box.  I like to support local farmers as well as have nice fresh produce to use.  This past week the box included two nice fresh zucchinis that I decided to prepare for lunch.

Sausage Stuffed Zucchini

Ingredients: 
2 medium zucchini
1/3 cup diced onion
4 sausage links, cut into rounds
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
4 tablespoons tomato sauce

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise.  With a metal spoon (I used a grapefruit spoon) scrape out most of the insides of the zucchini and place into a skillet.
Transfer the zucchini shells to a baking sheet.
3. Over medium heat, stir in onions and sausage, and cook about 3 to 4 minutes.  Remove from heat and spoon mixture into zucchini shells.  Spread one tablespoon of tomato sauce on each zucchini and top with Parmesan cheese.
4.  Bake in preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes.







This is so easy and a good way to use that extra zucchini that's available this time of year.
