Stuffed zucchini with freekeh pilaf and currants
Pilaf
Armenian cuisine

The zucchini can be par-cooked 2 days in advance of finishing the dish. The freekeh can be cooked 3 days prior to making the stuffing, and the stuffing can be prepared 2-3 days prior to stuffing the zucchini. The zucchini can be par-cooked, stuffed, then frozen, and you can pop the whole thing in the oven after defrosting to finish the dish (in which case it may need a longer cooking time). <br /> <br />The recipe also works nicely with a top layer of vegan cheese (or regular cheese), in which case you can broil the zucchini for 5-10 minutes instead of baking it for the final 15. <br /> <br />Bulgur wheat, quinoa, and couscous can be easily substituted for the freekeh.
