Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 zucchini, ends trimmed
4 (3 ounce) cans tuna, drained and flaked
ΒΌ onion, grated
1 tomato, finely chopped
1 cup dry bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with salted water, place the zucchini into the pot, and boil over medium heat for about 5 minutes to soften. Remove the zucchini, slice in half lengthwise, and allow to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Scoop out the flesh from the zucchini halves, leaving a 1/2-inch shell. Set aside the scooped out flesh in a bowl.
  • Place the zucchini flesh into a bowl and mash well. Mix in the tuna, onion, tomato, bread crumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Lightly stuff the zucchini shells with the tuna mixture. Drizzle about 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil over each stuffed zucchini half.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are slightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

This was a great recipe! I used fresh tuna instead of canned tuna and it turned out even better. I also added some chopped parsley to the filling for extra flavor.

This was a great recipe! I used canned tuna instead of fresh tuna and it turned out just as good. I also added some chopped red pepper to the filling for some extra flavor.
