COUNTRY SAUSAGE STUFFED ZUCCHINI SQUASH
We were very impressed by this zucchini recipe. It's a great way to use the extra bits of ingredients you may have in the fridge. Really, this could be served for any meal. It was like a breakfast casserole in a zucchini boat. If you like a little extra kick to your meals, use hot sausage. Looking forward to making this easy...

Steps:
- 1. I had 2 small zucchini that I scooped out the center.
- 2. Chop up what you've scooped out and place in a frying pan. Add the sausage, celery, onion, garlic powder, and bell pepper. Saute all of this until the sausage and vegetables are tender and the meat lightly brown.
- 3. Mix the flour and bread crumbs in with this mixture. Salt and pepper.
- 4. Wait a little while to let this set then mix the egg into this mixture. It shouldn't be really hot because it will fry the egg.
- 5. Add slices of butter to a small baking dish. Place the scooped out zucchini on top of the butter. Spoon the sausage mixture in it. Bake at 350 degrees uncovered for 20 minutes or until you can tell that the large zucchini is tender.
- 6. Then add grated cheese on top and bake until it browns or bubbles.
- 7. Note: This recipe was created just for one or two people so you will need to increase measurements for a larger amount. This would be good with Italian sausage from the casing or hot country-style sausage. I just used what I had on hand that day and it turned out very delicious!
ITALIAN SAUSAGE-STUFFED ZUCCHINI
I've always had to be creative when getting my family to eat vegetables, so I decided to make stuffed zucchini using the pizza flavors that everyone loves. It worked! We like to include sausage for a main dish but it could be a meatless side dish, too. -Donna Marie Ryan, Topsfield, Massachusetts

SAUSAGE STUFFED ZUCCHINI
I really love this recipe. I like to use smallish zucchini, because the large ones are just too tough. This filling is also very good for stuffed mushrooms or peppers or filo bites or whatever else you like.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make the zucchini boats: Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise. With a small paring knife, cut into each zucchini half about ¼ inch from the outside edges and ¼ inch (6 mm) deep. Be careful not to cut all the way through the zucchini. Using a small spoon, carefully scoop out the flesh of the zucchini inside the cuts, being careful not to scoop all the way through the squash. Dice the scooped-out zucchini flesh and set aside for the filling.
- Place the zucchini boats on the prepared baking sheet, and sprinkle evenly with the McCormick® Perfect Pinch Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Make the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large high-walled skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey sausage and cook for 4-5 minutes, breaking up with a spatula, until beginning to brown.
- Add the onion and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the green bell pepper, red bell pepper, reserved zucchini flesh, tomato paste, and diced tomatoes, and stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, then stir in the red wine vinegar, McCormick® Perfect Pinch Italian Seasoning, McCormick® Garlic Powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using. Cook for 2-4 minutes more, or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Spoon the filling into the zucchini boats, dividing evenly.
- Transfer the zucchini boats to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the zucchini is tender. Remove from the oven and turn the broiler on high.
- Sprinkle ¼ cup (25 g) mozzarella cheese over each zucchini boat, then return to the oven and broil for 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and browned. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!
