Time 20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium zucchini
¼ medium onion, chopped
⅛ cup green olives, diced
⅛ cup crumbled feta cheese
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons pine nuts
½ cup grated Asiago cheese, divided
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Trim ends from zucchini and cut each squash in half lengthwise. Scrape out centers of squash and place in a mixing bowl. Add onion, olives, feta cheese, garlic, pine nuts, 1/2 the Asiago cheese, basil, and oregano and mix well. Place mixture back into zucchini shells. Top each with a small amount of Asiago cheese and place zucchini boats on a baking sheet.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler until cheese browns, about 10 minutes.
