Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, and once shimmering, add the onion. Cook for a few minutes, until the onions have become translucent. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
- Add the ground beef and sausage. Cook, breaking it up as it browns.
- Once the meat has browned and is cooked through, stir in the marinara sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- While the sauce is cooking, remove the stem end of each zucchini, then cut in half lengthwise. Use a melon baller or a teaspoon to scoop the flesh out of the zucchini. Make sure to leave enough around the edges that the zucchini will still hold its shape. Place the zucchini on a baking sheet, cut side up.
- Once the sauce has finished cooking, spoon the mixture into each of the zucchini halves, dividing the mixture evenly between all of the zucchini. Top the zucchini with the cheese.
- Bake the zucchini in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the zucchini is fork tender.
