Jarlsberg Stuffed Zucchini Blossoms
Servings: 1 person
Calories: 218kcal
Ingredients
- 3 zucchini blossoms
- 3 teaspoons jarlsberg cheese dip *see notes
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper
- tomato sliced, optional
- avocado sliced, optional
Instructions
- Go outside and check your zucchini plant, remove 3 blossoms. Very carefully open them and remove the stamen from inside and any bugs that may have come along with them.
- Use a small spoon to stuff each one with about a teaspoon of the cheese filling then close the flower back around the filling.
- Heat a small skillet with olive oil and fry on one side until crisp, carefully flip them and fry the other side until the blossom is golden and the cheese is melted. Around 4-5 minutes total.
- I like to serve mine with a few fresh tomato and avocado slices. Drizzle the blossoms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
*Any soft cheese spread will work, Boursin would be equally delicious!
