Zucchini and Ground Beef Bake by Jes Mostek serves: 5	No ratings Rating Details Rate this recipe Printable View Print Index Cards

Similar to Eggplant Parmesan, made with zucchini. With the hearty addition of ground beef, you now have a protien-inclusive, well-rounded meal.

Ingredients:

2 c.

zucchini, chopped

1/4 c.

olive oil

1 med.

onion, chopped

3 cloves

garlic, minced

1 1/2 lbs.

ground beef

3 T.

Italian seasoning

egg

3/4 c.

parmesan cheese, grated

1 tsp.

salt

1/2 tsp.

pepper

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the olive oil and saute the zucchini, onion & garlic (1/2 tsp. = 1 clove) for 5-10 minutes, until zucchini starts to turn transparent.

While the zucchini mixture cools a bit, combine, in a separate bowl, the beef, cheese, egg, and spices. Then add the zucchini mixture and stir with a large spoon or your hands, until well-combined.

Transfer the zucchini-meat mixture to an ungreased 9" x 13" pan, and cook at 400 for 50 minutes.
