    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash the zucchini, halve them lengthwise, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon, creating space for the filling. Finely chop the scooped-out zucchini flesh; you'll use it in the filling.

    2

    Finely chop the onion, garlic, carrot, bell pepper, and spinach. Heat olive oil in a skillet and sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant.

    3

    Add the carrot, bell pepper, and chopped zucchini flesh to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables soften. Stir in the spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until wilted.

    4

    Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.

    5

    Fill the zucchini halves with the vegetable mixture. Sprinkle grated cheese over the top.

    6

    Place the stuffed zucchini on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.

    7

    Serve the stuffed zucchini warm, accompanied by a fresh salad or rice.
