Serves 6 to 8

INGREDIENTS

4 small zucchini
6 ounces fresh goat cheese
2 tablespoons Herbs de Provence mix (or any herb mix you like)
2 tablespoons sundried tomatoes, finely chopped
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste

PREPARATION

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Mix the goat cheese, chopped tomatoes, and herbs in a bowl with a fork.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
Cut zucchinis into 2-inch disks. Using a melon baller, being careful to not go all the way through, create a chamber for the cheese and tomato mixture.
Season the zucchini cups with salt and pepper.
Place the zucchini cups on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper or foil, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 4 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Remove from the oven.
Fill a pastry bag halfway with the cheese and tomato mixture. Pipe mixture into zucchini cups, then place zucchinis back in the oven for 8 to 12 minutes until the cheese mixture is golden brown.
