Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Halve zucchinis lengthwise, scoop out seeds, and place cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes until slightly softened.

  2. While zucchini bakes, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté shallots for 5 minutes until softened, then add mushrooms and cook for 7-8 minutes until liquid evaporates. Remove from heat, then stir in garlic powder, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, and pepper.

  3. Remove zucchini, flip cut-side up, and fill with the mushroom mixture. Bake for 10 minutes, then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven or broiler for 5 minutes or less until the cheese is melted.
