Zucchini And Tuna Pappardelle Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• To make the dressing, in a small bowl mix the vinegar, mustard, honey, and salt. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season with the zest and pepper.
• Using a mandoline, slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/8-inch thick pappardelle turning the zucchini and slicing on 4 sides only until the seeds in the center are reached. Discard the centers.
• In a small bowl combine the garlic, thyme, rosemary, and paprika with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Spread the zucchini slices on a large baking sheet and brush them with the garlic mixture. Broil for 3 minutes until light brown.
• Coat the cherry tomatoes with the remaining garlic mixture in a bowl. Put them on another baking sheet and broil for 1 to 2 minutes or until some skins pop and the tomatoes get slightly caramelized.
• Put the arugula in a serving bowl and top with the zucchini and tomatoes. Drizzle with the dressing. Sprinkle the feta and olives on top and serve.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with salted water, place the zucchini into the pot, and boil over medium heat for about 5 minutes to soften. Remove the zucchini, slice in half lengthwise, and allow to cool.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Scoop out the flesh from the zucchini halves, leaving a 1/2-inch shell. Set aside the scooped out flesh in a bowl.
• Place the zucchini flesh into a bowl and mash well. Mix in the tuna, onion, tomato, bread crumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Lightly stuff the zucchini shells with the tuna mixture. Drizzle about 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil over each stuffed zucchini half.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are slightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Place spiralized zucchini (zoodles) into a pot and cover with well salted water; bring to a boil. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes, then empty into a colander to drain. Let drain for 2 to 3 hours, occasionally pressing out as much moisture as you can.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9x13-inch glass casserole with cooking spray and add drained zoodles.
• Bake zoodles in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add cream cheese and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
• Remove zoodles from the oven and pour off any liquid. Add the skillet mixture to the zoodles, along with tuna, peas, Cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. Sprinkle almonds on top.
• Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
