September Means Stuffed Zucchini, and Other Things I’m Thinking About (9-16-2014)
Low-Carb Meat, Tomato and Mozzarella Stuffed Zucchini Cups are perfect for September! |
Other stuffed Zucchini variations I’ve enjoyed include Stuffed Zucchini with Brown Rice, Ground Beef, Red Pepper, and Basil and Vegetarian Stuffed Zucchini with Brown Rice, Black Beans, Chiles, Cheddar, and Cotija Cheese. And in two of the recent Deliciously Healthy Low Carb Recipe Round-Ups, I featured Eggplant Parmesan Stuffed Zucchini Boats from The Iron You and Jalapeno and Chicken Stuffed Zucchini from Peanut Butter and Peppers, both of which sounds like a must try!
Now here are a few more things I’ve been thinking about . . .
And I guess I will have to eat my words about not refrigerating tomatoes. Kind of. (From Serious Eats.)
I’m still a bit obsessed with the Spiralizer. If you’re one of the many people who have bought one recently, you might want to follow my Pinterest board for Spiralizer Recipes.

Making oatmeal in the rice cooker is awesome, according to The Kitchn. (It was an investment, but I love, love, love my Zojirushi Rice Cooker and can’t wait to try this. And I also want to try Cooking Quinoa in the Rice Cooker. )
I’m still missing my garden, but I’ve been getting greens, squash, and tomatoes at the farmers market. If you’re growing Swiss Chard, it’s probably abundant right now (lucky you!) Here are 10+ Healthy Favorite Recipes for Swiss Chard from Kalyn’s Kitchen if you need ideas for using it.

Val, lucky you to have a source for fresh eggs! And I can't wait to start doing some fall veggies in the spiralizer. The possibilities are endless.
I get eggs from a lady at work so I knew about the eggs and their natural protective coating. I am also in love with my spiralizer!!!!
Lydia, I am absolutely making those too! Great use for the lemons that get a little dried up on the counter.
First on my list, as soon as we move back to the city, will be to make those garbage disposal tablets. What a great idea!
