Stuffed Zucchini


Serves: 6
Total Calories: 156

Ingredients

3 zucchini, 6-8 inches long
1 cup mushrooms, chopped
2 tablespoons onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons reduced-calorie margarine
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 cup (4 oz.) nonfat mozzarella cheese or provolone cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
Freshly ground pepper

Directions:

1. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise. Cook in boiling water 4-5 minutes or until tender-crisp (I use an electric skillet). Remove pulp, leaving a 1/4 inch shell chop pulp.

2. Sauté mushrooms and onions in margarine. Stir in flour and seasonings. Turn off heat.

3. Stir in cheese, yogurt, pepper and chopped zucchini. Fill shells.

4. Boil 4 to 5 minutes or until cheese melts.

Note: Zucchini can be prepared to this step, covered, and refrigerated. Then broil 5-7 minutes.
