I feel like this recipe is a lesson in spelling.\u00a0 Mediterranean, zucchini, mozzarella…honestly, I feel I’m pretty proficient in spelling these words now. Lol.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These zucchini boats were created with Greek food flavors in mind.\u00a0 If you love lemon and feta with tomatoes and peppers and of course, zucchini, then you should definitely try this recipe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I found them pretty simple to make, almost like a one bowl recipe.\u00a0 You prep the zucchinis, (grilled on the bbq or fried in a pan), mix most of the other ingredients in a bowl and bake.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The filling has simple ingredients that bring a lot of extra flavor like lemon zest and fresh flat parsley.\u00a0 These two ingredients in particular help give these zucchini boats their mediterranean flare, so don’t skip out on them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When chopping the scooped center part of the zucchinis after they’ve been grilled, they will likely be quite juicy.\u00a0 Try and keep the juice when adding the chopped zucchini to the filling as it will add extra flavor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once the filling is mixed together, generously scoop it into the hollowed out zucchini boats.\u00a0 I put them close together, touching even, on the pan. Sprinkle mozzarella on top and bake for 8 minutes or until heated through.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When serving, sprinkle with pepper, arugula and lightly drizzle balsamic vinegar on top.\u00a0 Serve as a side dish or main course.\u00a0 I used a grapefruit white balsamic on mine, which I liked very much; however, you could use just regular balsamic vinegar, which is also very tasty.<\/p>\n
