About Zapallo italiano relleno

Zapallo Italiano Relleno, or stuffed Italian zucchini, is a popular dish in Latin American cuisine, particularly in Chile. This dish features hollowed-out zucchini filled with a savory mixture typically consisting of ground meat, onions, garlic, spices, and sometimes rice or breadcrumbs. It is then baked until tender, often accompanied by a topping of melted cheese. Zapallo Italiano Relleno is rich in vitamins and minerals, thanks to the zucchini base, which is high in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamin C. The addition of lean ground meat provides a source of protein and iron. To keep the dish healthy, opt for whole-grain fillers like quinoa or reduce cheese and oil quantities. While generally nutritious, the calorie content can vary depending on preparation choices, making moderation important for calorie-conscious diners. This hearty yet wholesome meal is a flavorful way to incorporate vegetables into your diet!
