I was so excited to play with squash blossoms, They always look so beautiful on a plate. I thought they would be difficult, they are a super easy recipe and anyone can make them. I stuffed them like a pasta shell, great sub for those carby noodles. You can serve these as an app or a side. I sometimes have these as my main with a side salad.
