Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchinis
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound ground Italian sausage casings removed
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a large baking dish with cooking spray.
- Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh to create boats. Arrange the zucchini halves in the baking dish.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Add the sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Pour in the marinara sauce and simmer for 5 minutes longer.
- Spoon the sausage mixture evenly into the zucchini halves. Top with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and golden brown. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve.
