Kolokithia Yemista Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Stuffed vegetables are a staple of the summer season and this version of kolokithia yemista (koh-loh-keeth-yah yeh-mee-stah) or stuffed zucchini is a great way to enjoy the bounty. The zucchini is hollowed and stuffed with a savory meat filling and topped with a creamy bchamel sauce that bakes up to a nice golden crust.
