South of The Border Stuffed Zucchini Recipe
Oh, this looks amazing! Even more, because I am currently juicing and just about everything looks good! I found this recipe from Kimberly Snyder who has a plethora of plant-based recipes on her blog which you can find more here! From her post, I also found out the zucchini is actually a fruit because it contains seeds on the inside! And a reminder that zucchinis actually grow these super beautiful yellow, edible flowers!! You can stuff them with other veggies, beans, cheese (plant-based of course!). I really only see the flowers for sale at farmers markets, even more reason to shop local. Happy cooking!
***I would add 1/4 cup of black beans and nutritional yeast for extra yumminess, protein, and B12. ***
