We're headed back to Italy at the end of this month to visit our friend, Ceri. We can't wait to share with you all of our upcoming discoveries of food, wine, and people! Since we're getting in the mood for Italy, we've been making mostly simple Italian food at home the past few weeks.

During our last trip to Italy, we stopped into one of our favorite restaurants in Florence, Cibreo, owned by chef Fabio Picchi. This stuffed zucchini dish was inspired by Chef Picchi. It's an easy way to incorporate vegetables into your meal and makes the perfect lunch or side dish. It's similar to a stuffed mushroom that you can serve along with a salad. It's also great served cold.
