Stuffed Zucchini

I always like to seek out new recipes on Pinterest and found this one. As you know, i really DISLIKE trying new things but this is a KEEPER!! 

 

INGREDIENTS:

•3 tsp olive oil, divided

•1 clove garlic, diced

•1 small yellow onion, diced

•8 oz mushrooms, diced

•1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

•3 tbsp whole-wheat bread crumbs

•2 tbsp Parmesan cheese

•2 zucchini, halved, seeds and pulp removed (I did use some of the pulp to mix in with the other vegetables)

•1 Red, Yellow, or Green Bell pepper (I used a combination of all three!)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.Preheat oven to 350°F.

2.Prepare stuffing: In a large pan on medium-high, heat 1 tsp oil. Add garlic, peppers, onion and mushrooms. Sauté until vegetables soften, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add remaining 2 tsp oil, vinegar, bread crumbs and Parmesan. Mix thoroughly.

3.Spoon an equal amount of stuffing into each zucchini half. Bake on a foil-lined cookie sheet for 15 minutes.
