ITALIAN SAUSAGE STUFFED ZUCCHINI BOATS RECIPE – Veggie Side Dishes
Italian Sausage Stuffed Zucchini Boats are a quick and easy vegetable side dish recipe. Tons of flavor and ingredients in every bite, including sausage, tomatoes, herbs, bread crumbs, and more. Kind of the same idea as a stuffed mushroom, but with zucchini instead!

Italian Sausage Stuffed Zucchini Boats Recipe
Ingredients:
4 medium zucchinis (about 2 lbs)
1 lb fresh italian sausage
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 large cloves of garlic, minced
2 large tomatoes, diced
1 egg
1/4 cup chopped parsley
6 scallions, sliced
salt and pepper
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat up a skillet over medium high heat, and add the sausage to the pan once the pan is hot enough that when you add the sausage, it hisses and sizzles. Break up any large bits of sausage with your cooking utensil, and brown the sausage for about 5 minutes, until the sausage has cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Split the zucchinis in half down the length of them, scoop out the middle of the zucchini using a melon baller, and discard the scooped middle part. Place the prepped zucchinis on a sheet pan, and sprinkle with salt.
In a large bowl, combine the browned sausage, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic, diced tomatoes, egg, parsley, and scallions. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix it all together until well blended. Scoop this filling into the prepped zucchinis, and be generous about piling as much of the mixture in as you can. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until lightly browned on top, and the zucchini is tender. Enjoy!

Do you need to add the Panko? I'd like to stay away from bread or bread crumbs.
I'm making this for my food class I'm 16
a boat full of EVERYTHING GOOD.thank you very much for sharing.
oh okay thanks.
wow! This is so creative! It's like stuffed peppers, but instead stuffed zucchini! I think I will use chicken instead of italian sausage 🙂 Thanks for sharing the idea!
Hi Joanne … this is a great looking recipe. I am going to send it out to my subscribes and facebook followers to try. Looks simple and delicious. I will be trying it myself!
oh I see, is there something else that would work for binding?
I'm allergic to eggs, would it still turn out right if eggs are left out?
Looks delicious!
These look great!! How well do these keep in the fridge? I live alone so It would take me a couple days to eat all those. Thanks!
It's interesting that this is a vegetable dish that is not vegetarian — I can't say I object, really. It would be interesting to see a series of vegetable-focused dishes, to try and tempt people into eating green things.
Im so excited I found your channel lots of yummy things for me to try! I was just looking for a cheese sauce recipe and this recipe as well so excited :)
