I can never resist these bright blossoms, especially when I turn them into stuffed zucchini flowers. I use creamy ricotta, parmesan, and lemon zest to stuff the delicate petals and bake until they have softened and the filling is warm and silky. They look like something straight out of a little Italian cafe, which is impressive considering it only takes 30 minutes to make.
