Since I've got an over abundance of zucchini coming from my garden, I thought I'd share a recipe I saw in a "heart" magazine....
Whites of 6 Large eggs or egg substitute equal to 3 eggs
Vegetable oil spray
1 med zucchini, diced
3 medium green onions, sliced
14.5-oz can no-salt-added tomatoes, drained
2 medium garlic cloves, minced well
1/2 tsp. salt-free Italian seasoning
1/4-tsp. pepper
2 oz shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 Tblsp. shredded or grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 F.
In small bowl, whisk together egg whites. Set aside.
Lightly spray a large non-stick skillet with an ovenproof handle w/vegetable oil spray. Heat over medium heat. Cook the zucchini for about 6 minutes, or until soft, stirring occasionally.
Stir in green onions. Cook for 1 minute.
Stir in tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning & pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender & the mixture has slightly thickened, stirring frequently.
Stir in egg whites.
Sprinkle w/mozzarella.
Bake for 12 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center. Then broil for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown.
Sprinkle w/Parmesan.
Bon apetite!
P.S.
Hey, did you guys hear or read about "watermelons"? Wow, now I just have to invest in a good food processor to liquify the rind!
I've got lots of watermelons planted!!!
