mexican style stuffed zucchini
(1 rating)
I can't quite remember where I stumbled across this recipe, but I LOVE ANYTHING MEXICAN oriented so of course I had to try it. My fiance begs me to make this dish now. Definitely a fave! (Hint: sometimes I double the filling and freeze half - just make sure you drain the meat well first!)
