Baked Stuffed Zucchini
Ingredients
- 1/2 c Walnuts chopped
- 4 Eggs
- 4 1/2-pound Zucchinis
- 1 tb Fresh basil chopped
- 2 Scallions chopped
- 1 c Soft bread crumbs
- Salt to taste

Instructions
- 1. Scrub zucchini and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out and reserve pulp, leaving shells 1/4-inch thick. 2. Drop shells into boiling water and boil for 5 minutes. 3. Chop pulp and saute in margarine. Add scallion (or green onions) and mushrooms; saute 3 minutes longer. Add nuts and remove from heat. 4. Beat eggs with parsley, basil, salt and pepper to taste. 5. Add egg mixture and fresh bread crumbs to pulp mixture. Spoon into zucchini shells which have been drained. Top with grated cheese. Use your choice of cheese; Parmesan is only one suggestion. 6.
