Zucchini Pizza & Stuffed Cheeseburgers!
OK so I was experimenting for dinner tonight...
Zucchini "pizza" a take off of Beth's Spinach Pizza
1 cup shredded zucchini squeezed dry
1/4 cup shredded parmesan
1 egg
salt & pepper
garlic powder to taste
mix all together - pat onto a well greased sheet pan - bake about 20 minutes at 400 degrees until browned and "dried out" a bit (not so juicy) top with sauce, mozzarella or toppings of your choice - broil for a few minutes until cheese is melted!
Oh this is so yummy! I didn't cook mine quite long enough so it was still soft - tastes SO good though! I did a white version with a little ricotta and fresh mozzarella on top
STUFFED Cheeseburgers
suggested fillings
sautee 1/2 of a large onion until brown and carmelized
bacon - fried crisp
any variety of cheeses
sautted mushrooms
use your imagination!
1 pound ground beef (I use 85% lean so they don't dry out on the grill)
salt & pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon worsteshire sauce
mix together - barely (the more you work the meat the tougher it gets)
form into thin patties (about 1/2"), using your fingers make a little "lip" around the edge of the patties. Put the fillings in the middle (don't over do it or they'll pop! lol) of 1/2 of the patties. Take a "plain" patty and top the filled patty. Pinch together the edges so the filling doesn't seep out. Grill to desired doneness.
I put bacon, onions and cheddar in mine, bacon, onions and american cheese in Chris'
So yummy!! This makes a great family dinner because you can serve everyone else's on rolls or with tater/mac salad and have yours just as is on the plate!
Hope you guys like these!

That's funny that you posted the burger recipe. Last night at the store, I got a variety of things to "stuff" burgers so everyone could customize thier own. That will be our dinner on Sunday! LOL
I still haven't tried the spinnich pizza, let alone a zuchinni version. But need to get on the ball with that. I think I will LOVE it!

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
