We have had zucchini boats stuff with Italian flavors,
sausage and rice, and chicken and cheese.
This time I tried something like a Philly Beef and Cheese
Steak Sandwich. I think it was our favorite!
I sauteed onions, mushrooms and peppers with garlic
and olive oil. To browned ground beef I added teriyaki
sauce, steak sauce, (1 part teriyaki to
3 parts steak sauce) a little sugar, salt and pepper.
Mix it all together and layer it in the boats
that have been seasoned with s & p and olive oil.
Top with lots of cheese. Bake 40 minutes at 400
for large boats like these.

I love your zucchini boats always look delicious:)
ReplyDeleteThey are kind of fun to make!
DeleteAnd look delicious lol
DeleteFirst:)
ReplyDeleteAre you sleeping Pat?
Haha
You are not only first but the only one! haha. Everyone is sleeping! Me, too...worked an auction until 10pm tonight! Tired!
DeleteI'm going to bed, too! Sweet dreams.
Sweet dreams Betsy:)
DeleteI'm already asleep! . . . . lol
DeleteSweet dreams everyone.
Sleep I was
DeleteDreams all abuzz
I had a weird dream about someone I work with! Whoa, if she only knew!
DeleteI wonder if my dream is true! Lol...
I'm awake, but not for long! Your boats look wonderful. I think I need to grow some zucchini!
ReplyDeleteYou and Gloria were the night owls!
Deletegolly, that is a great looking dinner. no water here in so cal for gardening this year. : (
ReplyDeleteTaria
That really is too bad...the rest of your weather is great for gardening.....if it just wasn't so dry!
DeleteGosh that looks good, Betsy.
ReplyDeleteThey are to sort of boats I like.
Wish I lived next door - I'd ask you to cook a ship . . . . . . lol
A ship...lol....
DeleteWell a large boat . . . . I'm no too greedy!! . . . :)
DeleteYou do make such delicious sounding dinners!! xx
ReplyDeleteI do love to cook!...probably because I like to eat. Lol....
DeleteHi Betsy - the plate looks positively delicious and it's so early here ... I love zucchini and I love corn and then a good mix and sauce - sounds so good .. cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteIt's a very summering looking meal, don't you think! We do love our sweet corn!
DeleteOne boat I may watch sink
ReplyDeleteHere at my rink
It would just turn into a submarine
DeleteAnd under the water it would be seen!
Are all these zucchini coming from YOU R garden? If so, I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteThey are! One plant, too...it's doing well! We have a lull right now, though, without anything to pick from it. But lots of blossoms look promising. I think it's all the rain and cooler temps....but the cool temps aren't so great for the tomatoes, which have been slim pickings for sure!
DeleteLucky you! The last time I tried to grow zucchini it got some type of plant disease and turned to a puddle of slime.
DeleteI'm gonna try it! It sounds absolutely delicious and I know, my husband will just adore it...
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope he loves it! Let me know!
Deletemy mom used to make something similar...beck then i did not appreciate zuchini as much...ha...not in this form
ReplyDeletethe flavors in this sound delicious though....
I think you would like it...even for a nonzuchini eater! ha.
DeleteI was up until 6 a.m., but gave up after 11 because I figured you had hit the hay. These look delicious - great combination. Finally had cherries last week but have not had corn yet. Must soon.
ReplyDeleteUp until 6am? What????
DeleteThis one sounds yummy, I would love it too.
ReplyDeleteThis one has been requested again...as soon as we get a zucchini that big!
DeleteSo nice to actually eat the fruits of your labour!
ReplyDeleteGood job Betsy.....such a versatile veggie...and delicious!
What kind of goodies did you bring home from the auction?
Cheers!
Linda :o)
I didn't bring home a thing! Nothing screamed 'take me home' this time! haha...what a change!
DeleteThat sounds (and looks) delicious! Especially with corn on the side . . . oh, how I love corn on the cob! (grilled with LOTS of butter) Still haven't seen any zucchinis large enough for trying this yet . . . all our zucchinis look like little cucumbers . . .
ReplyDeleteNotice you're snacking on cherries from my state! So am I . . . by the truck load it seems. Usually we don't get more than one bag of cherries a summer because they're quite pricey even locally, but for some reason this year the prices have been really low- must be good crops!?- and they are tasting better than I ever remember them to be!
I agree about the cherries...the biggest and sweetest I've ever had, yet plenteous and less expensive! A win-win!
DeleteI found an ark down in the garden yesterday. I left it there in case it rains again and we need a really big boat.
ReplyDeleteBut, your stuffed zucchini looks really yummy. I wonder what I have around that would fill up a zucchini and make a really good supper...
:0)
an ark....haha.
DeleteWell, I loved your life rafts!
Looks yummy- but I can't take my eyes off the corn..LOL!
ReplyDeleteThe corn has been great. Can't get enough of it!
DeleteI planted four zucchini (courgette) plants this year and now I'm snowed under with the things ! One plant is producing yellow zucchinis, they look really weird. I have made zucchini boats three times since you first published the recipe, and now I'm fed up with them. Do you want me to send a dozen zucchinis to you? Free!
ReplyDeletehaha...if you have lots coming on like that you have to pick them when they are very small...just 4-5 inches long! Otherwise you could use one to float over here like the Mayflower! haha. Give some to the strawberry lady!
DeleteI love how you cook, Betsy! Are your boys fussy eaters? Our son (with autism) used to be very fussy but now eats almost anything.
ReplyDeleteAlex is not fussy and loves to eat just about anything and everything. We've been known to hide food from him because he will eat and eat and eat until he's almost sick. At least he likes my cooking! haha. Harry and Spencer are extremely picky and rigid in what they will eat. They can't sit at the table and eat a meal with us without getting gaggy from looking at our plates. I just let them eat earlier than us rather than deal with that.
Deletealways love seeing you pop by my blog!!! I haven't made stuffed zucchini all summer but I am heading to the grocer and farmer's market tomorrow and making these for supper. yummo.....can't wait! oxox
