Oven Roasted Stuffed Squash Blossoms image

Oven roasting the squash blossoms, instead of frying, makes this a nice light summer dish. Pick your squash blossoms early in the day, and store in the fridge until ready to use. Top with some fresh basil pesto for added yum!

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch rainbow chard, stems removed and leaves chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 ounces chevre (goat cheese)
8 zucchini blossoms, stamen removed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium heat; add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chard and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Add basil, salt, and pepper, and cook until basil is soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Place cooled chard mixture between 2 towels and press to remove excess moisture.
  • Stir chevre and chard mixture together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Fill zucchini blossoms about 3/4 full with the goat chevre mixture, and pinch the ends closed. Place filled blossoms in a roasting pan; drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until blossoms are hot, about 10 minutes.

These were okay. The filling was a little bland and the squash blossoms were a little overcooked.

These were really good, but I think they would be even better if they were fried instead of baked.

These were really good, but I made a few changes to the recipe. I used a different type of cheese and I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these didn't turn out very well. The filling was too runny and the squash blossoms were mushy.
