MUSHROOM-STUFFED ZUCCHINI BOATS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Cut the stem end off the zucchinis and slice them in half lengthwise. With a table spoon, scoop out just the pulpy center that contains the seeds, and put the zucchini cut-side down on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cook for 15 minutes, until just slightly softened.

Add the mushrooms and saute, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their liquid and the liquid cooks off, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the mixture with garlic powder, stir in the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.

Divide the mushroom mixture between each zucchini, spooning it into the carved-out channel where the seeds were removed. Return the zucchini to the oven and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the zucchini from the oven, sprinkle each boat with mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven or to the broiler and cook until the cheese is melted, 5 minutes or less.
