Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Scoop out the centers of the zucchini halves, leaving about 1/4-inch thick shells. Chop the scooped-out flesh and set aside.
-
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped zucchini flesh, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
-
Stir in the cooked quinoa and season with salt and pepper.
-
Place the zucchini halves in a baking dish and fill each with the quinoa mixture.
-
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and golden.
-
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
