"Hide that stuff(ing) Squash"

You have tried the greek "gemista"? You thought it's tasty and easy to handle? Here another idea to prepare and serve minced meat.

I use mixed minced meat (use any minced meat you like - beef, lamb, veal, even chicken is fine),  cooked rice - and lots of parsley, nana-mint and origano - but try any spice you like!

Either bake the stuffed squash (zucchini) as they are in the oven or cover them with tomato-sauce (just some chopped tomatos from the can are fine - cook them with garlic, lemon zest and origano - no need for more) and braise them. You can also put some feta-cheese (or mozzarella... or any cheese you like) on top of it all and let it melt in the oven

Squash (Zucchini) also called courgette in some parts of the world, is believed to have been first cultivated up to 10,000 years ago! A favorite among low-carb dieters and anyone who wants to lose weight fast, zucchini has a very low score on the glycemic index. Due to its high water percentage, zucchini is low in calories, carbs and sugars, but high in essential nutrients like potassium, manganese, and antioxidants like vitamin C.

Grandma's Vegetable Soup (the not so vegetarian way)

My Grandma used to cook the perfect vegetable soup - it was not only a soup, that you eat as a starter - it was a whole meal. And because my grandma thought that nothing is "food" without meat - of yourse the vegetable soup was not toooo much vegetarian friendly ;)

This is also a perfect lunch in the office - simply throw everything in a pot, add some (selfmade!!) soup powder and water and....ready!

Parsnips have healthy levels of minerals like iron, calcium, copper, potassium, manganese and phosphorus. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps controlling heart rate and blood pressure by countering effects of sodium.

Parsley can provide much more than a decoration on your plate. Parsley contains two types of unusual components that provide unique health benefits. The first type is volatile oil components—including myristicin, limonene, eugenol, and alpha-thujene. The second type is flavonoids—including apiin, apigenin, crisoeriol, and luteolin.
