Zucchini Boats on the Grill image

Fresh zucchini stuffed with your favorite ingredients and finished on the barbecue grill. Great side dish or as a light meal on their own. When I make these I never measure the ingredients, I just make it look "right".

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium zucchini
1 slice white bread, torn into small pieces
1/4 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 tablespoon black olives, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
3 tablespoons green chili peppers, diced
1/4 cup onion, minced
1/4 cup tomatoes, chopped
6 tablespoons sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 pinch dried basil
seasoning salt, to taste
ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill for indirect heat.
  • Place the zucchini in a pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook 5 - 10 minutes. Drain, cool, and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out the pulp to about 1/4 inch from the skin. Chop pulp.
  • In a bowl, mix the zucchini pulp with all of the other ingredients.
  • Stuff the zucchini halves with the pulp mixture.
  • Seal each zucchini half in aluminum foil. Place the foil packets on the prepared grill over indirect heat. Cook 15 - 25 minutes (depending on the size of your zucchini.).
  • Use your imagination, you could "clean-out-the-fridge" and make endless combinations of stuffed zucchini!

These zucchini boats were a total disaster! The zucchini was mushy and the filling was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.

I had a hard time finding zucchini that was the right size for this recipe. I ended up having to cut them in half lengthwise.

These zucchini boats were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but these boats were actually pretty good. The filling was really flavorful.

These zucchini boats are so easy to make and they're always a hit with my family. I usually serve them with a side of rice or pasta.

I love how versatile this recipe is. You can really use any vegetables you have on hand. I also like to experiment with different cheeses. Last time I made them, I used a blend of cheddar and mozzarella.

These were delicious! I used a variety of vegetables in my filling, including zucchini, tomatoes, onions, and peppers. I also added a bit of crumbled bacon for extra flavor.

I've made this recipe a few times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The zucchini boats are so flavorful and the filling is perfectly cheesy and gooey.

These zucchini boats were a huge hit at our last barbecue! They're so easy to make and can be customized with any toppings you like. I personally love the combination of grilled zucchini, tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese.
