Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Tonight I made this easy recipe for my husband. It's for Stuffed Zucchini and each serving has about 3 points. Serves 8
- 1 lbs. ground turkey
- 4 large zucchini
- 1 c. onion
- 1 cup chopped green & red peppers
- 1 c. rice (I like the brown rice best)
- 1 large jar tomato sauce (I use low sodium sauce)
- 4 tbs Italian seasoning
- 1/4 c. fat free mozzarella cheese (I used regular part-skim cheese for 1 extra pt. per pepper)
- 1/4 tsp. garlic (I used minced garlic from a jar.
Blanch zucchini halves for 5-8 minutes in boiling water, or until tender.
Place zucchini shells in casserole dish.
Sauté turkey, garlic, onion and peppers and 2 tbs of Italian Seasoning until done, add cooked rice.
Mix tomato sauce with 2 tbs Italian Seasoning, then pour 1/2 into dish with turkey mixture.
Cook until hot.
Stuff cooked mixture into zucchini and pour remaining tomato sauce over zucchini.
Cover and bake for 45 minutes.
Uncover. Top with cheese and bake another 10-15 m. minutes or until cheese is melted.
