Delightful zucchini boats filled with a savory mixture of vegetables and cheese, perfect for any gathering or cozy dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 1 cup of chopped vegetables (like bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes)
  • 1 cup of cooked ground meat (such as turkey or beef) or a vegetarian option
  • 1 cup of shredded cheese (like mozzarella or cheddar)
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Herbs and spices (like Italian seasoning, garlic powder, or basil) to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise and scoop out the center with a spoon to create a boat shape.
  3. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped vegetables and sauté until soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the cooked ground meat (or your vegetarian option) to the pan.
  5. Fill each zucchini boat with the savory mixture and top with shredded cheese.
  6. Place the boats in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and bubbly.
  7. Serve hot, plated beautifully.

Notes

To avoid watery zucchini boats, sprinkle the insides with salt and let them sit for about 10 minutes, then pat dry before filling.
