Ingredients

• 5 medium / 1000g Zucchini
• 1lb / 500g Ground meat
  • 1 teaspoon / 5g Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon / 5g Salt
  • ½ teaspoon / 3g Paprika
  • 2 cloves / 3g Garlic
• 3½ oz / 100g Cheese (grated)
• 2 oz / 50g Parmesan
• ½ medium / 60g Purple onion (diced)
• 4 medium / 80g Mushrooms (sliced)

How to make stuffed zucchini

1. Wash the zucchinis then cut them into half and to the size of the tray we use to bake them. Carve the seeds out of the halved zucchinis. It doesn’t have to be nice looking as it will be filled, anyway.
2. Mix the meat with our favorite spices and herbs for the filling.
3. Fill up the zucchini boats.
4. Top them with grated cheese of choice. Our favorite is the Gouda. Add different types of cheese for a bit more fun. Parmesan can be a great company for any dish.
5. Sprinkle some diced purple onion on top and maybe a couple of slices of mushrooms.
6. Bake it for about 40 minutes or until  the cheese gets a golden brown color.

Enjoy!

Note: Freezing the zucchini boats is possible but it will result in soggy soft texture when thawed therefore not recommended.
