Ingredients

    4 (6 inch) zucchini squash (try doing 2 green & 2 yellow)
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    ½ cup (2 oz) crumbled feta cheese
    ½ tsp dried oregano
    ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper


Directions

Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (you can also use a brown paper sack or PAM).

Trim the ends from the zucchini and cut crosswise into 6 equal sized pieces. Using a small melon ball scoop, scoop out the seeds from one end of each piece, without cutting through to the other side, to make small cups. Place, hollowed-out side up, on the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, combine the egg, cheese oregano, and pepper and mix well. Spoon the cheese mixture into the zucchini cups, dividing evenly. Bake until the filling sets and zucchini is tender, 12 to 15 minutes.

Add some cherry tomatoes, cut in half and sprinkled with balsamic vinegar and a sprinkle of leaf organo on the same plate...very pretty and goes well together.
