Stuffed Squash Blossoms

Print Options
Description
These pretty flowers do not have a ton of nutritional value. But they make a nice cocoon for other tasty ingredients. Many times, stuffed squash blossoms are fried, but I found that baking them works wonderfully and does not mask the flavor of your stuffing.
Ingredients
- 8 whole Large Squash Blossoms, Stemmed And Washed
- ¾ cups Part-skim Ricotta Cheese
- 2 ounces, weight Crumbled Feta Or Goat Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper
- 3 Tablespoons Fresh Chives, Chopped
- 1 clove Garlic, Presed And Very Finely Minced
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- ½ teaspoons Fresh Ground Black Pepper
- 1 whole French Baguette, Sliced Into Rounds
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine stuffing ingredients (all of the ingredients except the squash blossoms and the baguette) in a bowl and mix well with a fork until evenly combined. Stuff each blossom with 2 Tablespoons of the mixture and place onto the lined baking sheet.
Bake for 9-12 minutes, until flowers are wilted and stuffing ingredients are bubbling. Remove from oven.
Place each blossom onto a toasted slice of baguette. Serve immediately.
