Yes, I’m fully serious, a zucchini pulp dish.
Textured and lemony vegan appetizer or side dish, this is what we call something from nothing kind of recipe. I like making mahshi and my new obsession making it with yogurt sauce and usually end up with a lot of zucchini pulp. As any good girl, I follow my mom’s footsteps :). I saw my mom putting the pulps in the bottom of the cooking pan to prevent scorching and so I did.

Using the pulps to create another dish is much better and creative than just throwing them in the bottom of  a pan so this time I followed another route. Sometimes, no a lot of times, the crazy-busy-stress-go-go-go life makes you sort of dreading making meals and dragging your feet to your kitchen at 6:00pm to fix something for the family. When you make any stuffed zucchini recipe, do not through the pulp and wait for a busy day like this. Fix this veggie side and eat with some bread, you might also add some chicken/meat to the side for a complete dinner.
Now here is how to make it:


Saute onion in oil until fragrant.


Add the zucchini pulps, stir and break apart with a spoon.


Add diced bell pepper.


And tomato.


 Then add garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Stir, stir stir until it is all done.
Serve warm with bread or as a side dish… so tasty.
