Italian Style Stuffed Zucchini 

      Serves 2

1 zucchini

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped

1/2 tsp fennel seeds

2 T tomato paste

1 garlic clove, minced

1/4 C fat free feta cheese crumbles

Salt to taste (optional)

Grated Parmesan, for topping

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and cover small baking sheet with foil. Cut zucchini, lengthwise, in half. 

Scoop out the inside being careful not to cut through the back. (I used a grapefruit spoon to help it along). In a small bowl, mix together the oregano, rosemary, fennel, garlic, feta, tomato paste and zucchini. 

Mix everything together and break up any big pieces of zucchini. Fill the zucchini boats with the mixture.

Place on baking sheet and top zucchini with Parmesan. Bake for 25 minutes.

Kinda tastes like a veggie pizza. If you're craving bold Italian flavors but you're watching your carbs, this is the perfect dish!
