• Drizzle onion with the balsamic vinegar, place the butter into the center of onion, and season lightly with salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning.

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a small baking pan with foil.

• Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F.
• Remove and discard the onion peels. Using a spoon, scoop out the onion centers, leaving a 1/2" shell. Chop the centers and reserve 1 cup for the stuffing; save the remainder for another use.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini, garlic, thyme, basil, and the 1 cup chopped onions. Cook for 6 minutes, or until the zucchini is softened and most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from the heat and stir in the bread crumbs, pine nuts, 2 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese, salt, and pepper.
