Savory Stuffed Zucchini

Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes

5 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
3 Tbsp. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! Spread
1 medium onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 tsp. dried oregano leaves, crushed
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 375˚.  Scoop out pulp from 8 zucchini halves; set aside.  Arrange zucchini halves on baking sheet.  Meanwhile, coarsely chop remaining zucchini and pulp.

Melt spread in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook chopped zucchini and onion, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender.

Add red pepper, garlic and oregano.  Cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute; cool slightly.  Evenly spoon vegetable mixture into zucchini halves.

Top with cheese.

Bake 30 minutes or until tender.
