Stuffed Zucchini
These tasty entrees have been shared with us by Tenina Holder from Cooking with Tenina. This variety uses chicken, but prawns also work well. For a traditional alternative, you can wrap the mixture in wonton wrappers and steam. However, the zucchini makes a great grain free alternative.
