Ingredients

 

INGREDIENTS 3 medium zucchini, sliced 1 Tablespoon olive or vegetable oil 1 medium onion, sliced 1 garlic clove, minced 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 1/2 cups dry instant stuffing mix 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 3/4 cup shredded reduced fat mozzarella cheese

 

Directions

 

Serves 6, but as a side dish I think it serves more like 10-12, but I did the servings as 6 per the recipe. You can also omit one or both of the cheeses to really lower the calories and fat..though I think its much better at least with the grated Parmesan which is quite low in calories and fat. DIRECTIONS In a large skillet, cook zucchini in 1 tablespoon oil until tender, about 5-6 minutes; drain and set aside. In the same skillet, saute the onion and garlic in remaining oil for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, basil, oregano, garlic salt and pepper; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; gently stir in zucchini. Place in an greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Top with stuffing mix; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven for 10 minutes or until golden.
