It was otherwise destined for a quiche, pasta or with scrambled eggs on toast.<br />The original idea used cooked minced turkey in a spicy sauce, which sounds delicious.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-37072374787209143202015-08-31T00:16:13.886+01:002015-08-31T00:16:13.886+01:00I usually get plenty of courgettes but the weather...I usually get plenty of courgettes but the weather's been a bit odd this year so the crop's smaller. But I still insist on making some stuffed courgettes/marrows. I have to say that I've never used smoked salmon and that sounds like a particularly fine notion. Thinking about it, I seem to only buy halloumi in the winter - I really don't know why.Phil in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15904292856978631382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-24940391811450817442015-08-30T08:11:54.202+01:002015-08-30T08:11:54.202+01:00Susan, it's a versatile recipe I think, glad y...Susan, it's a versatile recipe I think, glad you enjoyed it. The blue cheese variation sounds very tasty.<br />It's a good way of using courgettes and for me it was a healthier alternative to yet another quiche, which is my usual way of using up bits and bobs. Much better for us than all that flour, butter, cream and eggs. I felt quite virtuous making it!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-74700277645707328872015-08-29T19:07:07.824+01:002015-08-29T19:07:07.824+01:00I've just served a variation of this for dinne...I've just served a variation of this for dinner. I used tiny whole cherry tomatoes instead of chopped tomatoes and a blue cheese sauce instead halloumi. It worked very well. Even Simon ate it and said it was OK (I expect he didn't want to get too carried away in case it encouraged me to do stuffed zucchini again...) If I make it again I would use canned tuna in my version, rather than waste smoked salmon with the blue cheese.

A nice goats cheese would work I think.<br />The pieces of halloumi were still intact after cooking but a sticky mess of melted goats cheese would have been delicious too.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-83058833687429522952015-08-28T21:51:23.904+01:002015-08-28T21:51:23.904+01:00I came here from there... as you suggested.
