Zucchini Stuffed with Ground Meat

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You're hollowing out round zucchini and filling them with a savory mixture of ground meat, cheese, and peppers — a straightforward dish that looks as impressive as it tastes. The main time commitment is the 40-minute bake, while prep involves scooping out the zucchini and mixing the filling, which takes about 15 minutes.

    Hollow out the zucchini

    Wash the zucchini, cut off the tops and hollow them out with a large spoon. Chop the scooped-out flesh and mix it with the ground meat.

    Add cheese and red bell pepper cut into small cubes. Season with salt, pepper and your favorite herbs. I can't wait for the herbs in the garden to be ready — with fresh parsley the filling will be perfect!

About this recipe

Round zucchini have completely won me over. They look beautiful, and I think they're even tastier than the small, narrow, elongated ones I also love. Their shape practically begs to be stuffed and baked. Today's recipe is wonderfully simple and incredibly delicious.
