Food ZUCCHINI BOATS - fooddeary.blogspot.com

4 medium zucchini
2 tbsp canola or olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese
2 tbsp whole-wheat flour
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cut zucchini in half lengthwise; scoop out centers leaving 1/2-inch shell.

Finely chop the meat of the zucchini.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; saute the chopped zucchini, onion, and garlic until the onion is tender, less than 5 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl combine the Swiss cheese, both flours, parsley, beaten eggs, salt and pepper; mix together well.  Stir in the zucchini mixture.

Stuff the zucchini shells with the mixture; sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over all.  Bake 30 to 35 minutes until the filling feels firm and is a golden brown.
