Mediterranean-ish Stuffed Zucchini

By The BBQ Buddha

Dinner last night was a classic Pantry Night here in the Buddha household. I had some really good sausages on hand and wanted to do something different with them. Looking around in the refrigerator I found my inspiration… Zucchini’s! Finding a way to bridge the two ingredients took a little more digging in the pantry. I am happy to say this dinner turned out great and I am eager to share it with you. Now sit back, grab yourself a glass of Pinot Gris, and enjoy this recipe for Big Green Egg Stuffed Zucchini.
