Ingredients
Directions
9 STEPS
1
Preheat oven to 375°F.
2
Wash and cut zucchini lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the insides, leaving about 1/4 inch border to create zucchini boats. Chop the scooped-out zucchini flesh and set aside.
3
Place zucchini boats on a foil-lined baking sheet and pre-bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven.
4
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes or until softened.
5
Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
6
Add ground beef to the skillet and cook until no longer pink, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula.
7
Mix in the marinara sauce, chopped zucchini, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes.
8
Spoon the beef mixture evenly into the pre-baked zucchini boats. Top each boat with a generous portion of shredded mozzarella cheese.
9
Return the filled zucchini boats to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
