Ingredients




2 medium sized yellow squash
2 medium sized zucchini
6 ounces French Feta (made from sheep milk) or Greek feta
10 ounces cherry tomatoes
8-10 fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon olive oil
High heat cooking spray (like canola)
Salt and pepper

Preparation

1 Cut the zucchini and squash in half. 2 Using a sharp knife cut around the inside edge of the squash. Next make horizontal slits across the squash, from one side to the other of the lengthwise cut. 3 Use a spoon to carve out the center of each zucchini and squash, so they look like little boats. Reserve the center pieces. 4 Season the zucchini and squash with salt and pepper, and dust with cooking spray. 5 Heat grill to 450 degrees and grill for 4 minutes per side. 6 Rough chop the squash meat you removed from the center of each squash and cook in olive oil, with salt and pepper, on medium-high heat for 8 minutes. Crumble the feta cheese & slice the cherry tomatoes in half and fold into the sautéed squash. Cook for 2 minutes, then spoon the mixture into the grilled zucchini “boats”. Chiffonade the basil leaves (aka cut into long thin strips), sprinkle on the zucchini boats, and serve.
