    Source of Recipe


    Marcie Dingerson

    Recipe Introduction


    Origins Unknown

    List of Ingredients




    1-2 LARGE* zucchini, washed, split lengthwise, and seeds discarded.*Large being baseball diameter or bigger. The bigger the better. I have to buy it at the farmer's market.

    ground beef (may substitute any ground meat)

    garlic, parsley, and oregano to taste

    1 egg

    tomato sauce

    basil leaves

    Recipe



    1. Stir together the ground beef, egg, garlic,parsley, and oregano.

    2. Mound the beef mixture into the zucchini and place in frying pan. Mound it high, the mixture will compact while baking.

    3. Pour tomato sauce over zucchini boats until mostly covered.

    4. Add fresh basil leaves.

    5. Cook on medium-low heat on the stove or in an electric frying pan until zucchini is soft and hamburger is cooked through, usually about an hour.

    6. Extra meat does really well as meatballs.
