Fried Zucchini. Delicious, not nutritious. Solution: Baking! The thing it's almost impossible for me to mess up (unless it's chicken... chicken hates me). Thus, I searched for baked zucchini on Pinterest (the best website ever for recipes... and also pictures of Ryan Gosling. Not that that's why I spend so much time on it or anything... I'm learning to cook Mom, get off my back!). Anyways, this is the first one I found so I went with it. Mangia!
Zucchini Boats
1. Cut a zucchini in half lengthwise and trim a little off the bottom so it sit still in a baking dish
2. Scoop out the center where the seeds are with a spoon
3. Brush the surface with a mixture of crushed garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper
4. Arrange halved grape tomatoes into the grooves
5. sprinkle with (LOTS of) bread crumbs and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes
6. Remove and place diced fresh mozzarella in between the tomatoes, place them back in, but now under the broiler til golden and bubbling
7. Remove and add a sprinkling of grated parmesan.
