Ingredients

  • 4 zucchinis
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup of whole mushrooms
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 3/4 cup of panko crumbs gluten-free if needed
  • 2 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons of crumbled feta
  • 1 teaspoon of oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400F. Prepare a baking dish lined with some parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  • Using a board and a knife, chop tomatoes, pepper, mushrooms, and the garlic cloves into small pieces.
  • Cut the zucchinis in half in the length and, using a teaspoon, carve the flesh of the zucchini, keeping about a quarter of an inch thick of the zucchini. Save half of it for the stuffing.
  • In a bowl, mix the reserved zucchini flesh, vegetables, bread crumbs, and season with salt and pepper. 
  • Fill up generously the zucchini halves with the stuffing. Place them on the baking dish.
  • Drizzle with olive oil.
