Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Stuffed Tomatoes
Shrimp with Mango Salsa
I followed some recipes from Pinterest but tweaked them according to time and what I had. Note, I am not big on measuring things exactly unless its a liquid (even that's iffy) so you can follow a recipe or do what I do and just add stuff on what you see fit.
First the tomatoes:
Ingredients:
Basil
Four (large-ish) tomatoes with the tops cut out and the "stuff" removed
Feta or Goat cheese
Salt/Pepper
Any seasonings, etc that you want to put in there (cilantro, thyme, beans, etc)
There are so many options for stuffed tomatoes that you can put almost anything in there. Mix all of the ingredients with the insides of the tomato and fill up your cored out tomatoes. Top with cheese and bake in the oven at 375-400 for about 20 min or so. Some people brush it with olive oil but I forgot that piece and they turned out fine :)
Zucchini Boats:
Ingredients:
Zucchini, split length-wise
Cheese
Sour Cream
Garlic
Onion
Tomato
Anything else! Like I said before, anything goes, just pick flavors that will complement each other
Shell out the zucchini and put that in a bowl. Saute the garlic and onion in a pan. Mix that in with the zucchini and other ingredients. Fill up your "boats" and top with cheese. Bake with the tomatoes about 30 minutes or so though.
Mango Salsa
Ingredients:
Mangos (duh)
Cilantro (smells so good!)
Red onion
Lime/Lemon/Orange juice (I used fresh squeezed, and when I say orange juice...not the orange juice you drink)
Salt/Pepper
Basil
Strawberries (optional...definitely sounds good!)
Mix all ingredients together (i made sure everything was chopped up well) and done!
Shrimp:
I cooked the shrimp in a pan and sauteed them with lime juice, butter, and cilantro. They turned out really well. Then I topped them with salsa!
Don't be afraid to look up other recipes and mix and match them. That's what I did to make something that worked for me and something new.
Enjoy!
