Produce Box Dinner: Stuffed Zucchini & Scalloped Potatoes (using white beans)

 Using Produce Box Zucchini and Potatoes (*potato recipe in separate post)

Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Ingredients:

Zucchini (as many halves as you think you need to serve you and your family, we used 1 and each ate half)
Morningstar Veggie Beef Crumbles (I used 1 c. for our meal, adjust according to how many you are serving)
Other veggies of choice, finely chopped (carrots, onion, red pepper, broccoli etc.)
Olive Oil
Spices - Oregano, Basil, Garlic, Salt, Pepper
Flour (chickpea flour is what I used, but any will do)

Method:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Cut zucchini in half and hollow out, leaving a shell (I had to use a sharp knife and spoon to do this)
Reserve pulp and finely chop (I used the Ninja)

On a baking sheet lined with foil, bake the zucchini halves for 10 min.
Remove from oven and set aside

Filling:

In a frying pan, heat 1 TBSP olive oil
Fry 1 TBSP garlic, chopped zucchini pulp, and other diced veggies of choice
Microwave veggie beef crumbles until hot

Once veggies have softened and browned, add microwaved beef crumbles
Stir in 2 TBSP flour (I used chickpea flour) and a little water to moisten

Fill the pre-baked zucchini boats and return them to oven for 10-15 min.
(*Optional - top with shredded mozzarella cheese before baking - we did not)

Serve with pasta or other starch (scalloped potatoes for tonight) and a side salad
