Delightful zucchini boats filled with quinoa, marinara, and cheese, perfect for a healthy meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or rice
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the zucchinis in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh to make boats.
  3. In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa or rice with marinara sauce, diced bell peppers, onion, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Carefully fill each zucchini boat with the savory mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in.
  5. Generously sprinkle shredded cheese on top of each filled zucchini boat, and drizzle a little olive oil.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the zucchinis are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Notes

These zucchini boats are customizable; try swapping the quinoa for lentils or adding cooked sausage.
