Zucchini Grinders (serves 2)

INGREDIENTS

* 1-1/2 teaspoons butter
* 1 medium zucchini, cubed
* 1/2 pinch red pepper flakes
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1/2 cup marinara sauce
* 2 med bocconcini (2" diameter)
* 2 (6 inch) French or Italian sandwich rolls, split

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the zucchini in butter until browned and slightly tender. Season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and stir in the marinara sauce. Cook and stir until sauce is heated.
3. Slice bocconcini into 1/4" thick slices, and lay into bun. Spoon a generous amount of the zucchini mixture into each sandwich roll. Close the rolls, and wrap individually in aluminum foil.
4. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until bread is heated through, and cheese is melted. The bocconcini will be stringy and gooey and delish.
