Got produce problems?

Are you asking yourself at 3am what to do with all the zucchini and corn from the farmers market?

Does the thought of sauteeing another vegetable give you gas?

Well, if you answered yes to all three questions, I have the perfect solution to your produce problems. Introducing the VEGGIE-SUCKER 2000. Okay, just kidding. But seriously, wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could dump all your veggies into some type of device and it would burp up a delicious meal?

Even though I don’t have a magical veggie machine, I do have the next best thing if you have a ton of zucchini and corn at your disposal make Stuffed Zucchini with Taiwanese Grilled Corn. Grilling zucchini and corn should be a no brainer, but sometimes I get veggie tunnel vision and gravitate towards that darn skillet.

So, I’m giving the oven the middle finger and taking my veggies to the grill. Also, can we talk about how zucchinis make a great base for a Meatless Monday meal. After last weeks gluttony of ice cream, cheese dips and bubbles, I really need a reset.

Simply slice the zucchini in half creating boats and toss them on the grill. I had some leftover cilantro rice that I piled-high and then topped with the piece de resistance, Taiwanese Grilled Corn. If you’ve never made Taiwanese corn before, it’s super easy to make. Just mix a few ingredients together, slather it on the corn and grill. No joke, it will blow peoples minds.

Anyway, if you need hot second to reset that doesn’t taste like nursing home food make some Stuffed Zucchini with Taiwanese Grilled Corn.
