The ingredients for Shava's Stuffed Zucchini are:

1/4 LB ground turkey
1/2 medium to large zucchini
1 CUP grated carrot
1 CUP onions/peppers. We use a frozen three pepper blend from Kroger but you could also use fresh.

Olive Oil nonstick cooking spray if needed

Here is how you make Shava's Stuffed Zucchini:

In a skillet over medium heat combine onion/pepper, turkey, and carrots. Heat until turkey is cooked and onions start to look translucent.Meanwhile scoop the insides out of your two quarters of zucchini to make little boat shapes. Add zucchini to skillet and heat for 2-5 minutes.Place 1/4-1/2 of an inch of water in a baking dish. Fill zucchini "boats" with mixture, you should have some extra. Set that aside for another meal. Place filled zucchini boats in the baking dish and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, until zucchini is mostly tender (It gives a bit of a resistance to a plastic fork but not to a metal one -- if that makes sense. Also you can cover it if you like, but if you don't the vegetables get a wonderful little char. The carrots are especially yummy)I like to serve this with rice. :)Makes three 1/2 to 3/4 cup servings (depending on how big your zucchini is)Number of Servings: 3Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SHAVALLAMA.
