Stuffed Zuchini....

A couple of Sundays ago, I made a special trip the a section of Atlantic Avenue known for its high concentration of muslim and middle-eastern restaurants,retailers, and mideast goods. I wanted to check out a middle-eastern grocery (and eat falafel,which could have been the real reason for going). The store I had hoped to visit, Samedi's, was closed. This angered me abit unitl I found a smaller grocery/deli. A half hour and 18 dollars later,I had several cans of food from places like Turkey and Lebanon. One of the cans I happened to pick up was my dinner for this evening.



I didn't want to microwave the stuffed zuchini. I feel the older I get the less I like the taste of things that come out of the microwave. Anybody with me. So I set the oven to bake and heated the goods up for about 10 minutes. The outcome......



The zuchini is stuffed with rice and tomato sauce,with some common meditteranean spices thrown in. The stuffing kinda reminds me of spanish rice, withy less zing. I love spanish rice,so this factor sold me on the product. It's nice to pay 2 dollars for a meal in a can,especially one suitable for vegetarians. But this is what I'm all about. Thrifty foods from the 4 corners of the world. I should probably entertain the idea of making this from scratch. It shouldn't be too hard.
