An easy and fun dinner of zucchini with sausage and bell pepper stuffing. My kids love helping make these and I love that they're an easy, healthy meal idea!
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
Saute the onion and bell pepper for about 5 minutes.
Add the ground sausage to the skillet and stir occasionally until cooked through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and set it aside.
Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise. Use a paring knife and spoon to scoop out (and keep!) the seeds and center of the zucchini flesh, leaving a hallowed out zucchini canoe with edges about ¼ inch thick.
Dice the zucchini centers that you removed and add them to the meat and veggie mixture in the skillet.
Add the diced, roasted red peppers, eggs, herbs, and spices to the skillet and stir well.
Divide the meat mixture evenly among the zucchini halves and top with shredded cheese if desired.
Bake in a baking dish or baking sheet for 25-30 minutes or until heated through and the cheese starts to bubble.
Top with sour cream if desired and enjoy!
Notes
I like to make extra and wrap them to reheat later for breakfast or lunch on the go.
