Zucchini With Chickpea and Mushroom Stuffing image

This is a recipe I found on allrecipes and tweaked it a little. The zucchini are hollowed out and filled with sauteed onions, mushrooms, zucchini, lemon juice, herbs and spices. Very healthy and tasty recipe! If you aren't concerned about fat content, top them with shredded cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I had some leftover brown rice and it worked perfectly in the stuffing.

I had some trouble finding chickpea flour. I ended up using regular flour and it worked out fine.

The stuffing was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices to give it more flavor.
