Stuffed Zucchini
Zucchini does not have a sharp distinct flavor, and is quite simple to use in healthy meals. This stuffed zucchini recipe makes the most out of this and adds a dash of Italian seasoning to the otherwise plain food. There’s room for customization; you can add whatever spices you love, and it will only make it better!

Prep Instructions
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan.

- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup Parmesan over the boats.
- Preheat your oven to 350°, and bake the stuffed zucchinis for 25 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
