ZUCCHINI AND FETA APPETIZER

Steps:

• Boil a large pot of salted water (not the dead sea, but put in a couple of TBSP of salt).

• Pre-heat your broiler/grill on high.
• Fill each "canoe" with feta cheese (you don't have to use the whole cup up, but put a good amount in each) and broil for a couple of minutes. When the cheese has turned a little brown in spots, remove from the broiler.
• Drizzle each with a TBSP of olive oil, a sprinkle of pepper and salt if you like, and serve with crusty bread (I like ciabatta, rubbed with garlic and a little olive oil.).
