4 Servings
Prep 20 min
Cook 40 min

• 4 zucchini, halved lengthwise
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 red onion, chopped
• 5 plum tomatoes, chopped
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper
• 6 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Using a small spoon, scoop out the zucchini flesh, leaving a 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick shell. Wrap the zucchini flesh in a paper towel and squeeze out any excess liquid; discard the liquid and set aside the flesh. Place the zucchini shells cut side down on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over high heat. Add the zucchini flesh and onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Push the vegetables to the side of the pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the bread crumbs, and toast the bread crumbs for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the nuts and oregano, then combine with the vegetables; season with salt and pepper.
3. Flip over the zucchini shells and line the bottoms with the mozzarella. Pack in the filling. Sprinkle the parmesan on top. Bake until the zucchini is tender when pierced with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

Smoky Potato Packets

Recipe & picture courtesy of Family Fun

Serves 8

• About 1/3 cup olive oil
• 2 lbs. new potatoes, sliced thinly (1/4-inch)
• 2 slices of a sweet Spanish onion, or 4 slices yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 3/4 tsp. dried rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. pepper or pinch of cayenne pepper

1. When the fire is lit but not ready, lay out 8 pieces of foil (about 12 by 8 inches) and brush with olive oil. Shingle an eighth of the potatoes in a circle in the center of each piece of foil. Break the onion slices into rings and scatter evenly over each potato ring. Equally divide the remaining olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper over the potatoes.
2. With the potato rings intact, bring the two large edges of foil to the center, sealing firmly. Fold over the other two short edges to seal. Place on a medium or medium-hot fire for 20 to 25 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through. (Cooking in foil packets is not an exact science, so remember to check one packet after 20 minutes for doneness and to make sure the bottom isn’t burning. If necessary, finish cooking with another foil sheet under the packets.)
