Today I want to suggest you a very delicate filling for my new recipe Stuffed Zucchini with Ham and Parmigiano, a filling that I’m sure your children would like a lot: potatoes, ham and cheese.
But not any type of cheese; Parmigiano Reggiano will be my choice for this recipe.
There are many types of fillings that match very well with zucchini and that are common in Italian traditional cuisine: you can find fillings made of minced meat, fish, vegetables, cheeses…depending on the regional habits.
In Sicily, for example, are popular tuna stuffed zucchini.
Stuffed Zucchini with Ham and Parmigiano can be served either as a starter or as a main dish along with mashed potatoes or vegetables.
