Scale
- 2 zucchinis (ends trimmed and sliced half, lengthwise)
- 1 small tomato (cored, seeded and finely diced)
- 1/4 green bell pepper (finely sliced lengthwise)
- 2 tablespoons onions (finely chopped)
- 1 slice bacon (finely chopped)
- 4 green or black olives (pitted and thinly sliced)
- 1 cup mild cheddar or parmesan cheese (shredded)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350Fº.
- Using a small spoon, scoop the seeds out of each zucchini piece, creating a canoe like shape. Cut a thin strip on the back so that each piece can lie flat on a cooking tray.
- Put zucchini boats on a cooking tray.
- Add a little cheese at the bottom of each piece and evenly distribute bell pepper, tomatoes and onions.
- Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle with bacon and olives slices.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, until cheese is melted and zucchini is soft while still yielding a slight crunch.
- Turn oven to broil and broil until cheese is golden brown and bubbly (3-4 minutes). Serve warm.
