ingredients

3 small zucchini
1 ¹⁄₂ cups grated zucchini
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
¹⁄₂ cup dry breadcrumbs
¹⁄₂ cup feta or 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 egg
¹⁄₈ teaspoon oregano

directions

Slice small zuccinis in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds and set zuccinis aside.
Fry grated zuccini (a large, older zuccini is fine for this part), and onion in butter until onion is tender and most of the liquid is gone.
Remove from heat and mix in bread crumbs, cheese, egg and oregano (this is the stuffing).
Spoon stuffing into zuccini halves (where the seeds used to be) and place halves, stuffing side up, onto a baking tray (this can be done up to a day ahead, and refridgerated until needed).
Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.

Made directly as instructed. They were pretty good, the only thing I would change is somehow to season the zucchini. The "stuffing" was so tasty, but it seemed to just slip off the zucchini "shell" and the zucchini didn't have much taste. I will be trying these again however, they were totally quick and easy, the guys ate them for poker night!
