Ingredients




1 teaspoon of olive oil (5 ml)
1 slice of bacon, finely chopped (28 g)
1/2 medium onion, peeled and finely chopped (55 g)
10 white button mushrooms, finely chopped (100 g)
1/3 lb of ground beef (149 g)
1/4 teaspoon of turmeric (1 g)
2 zucchinis, halved lengthways (240 g)
Salt, to taste
Parsley, chopped to garnish

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). 2 In a pan heat the olive oil and cook bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. 3 In the same pan, add the onions and mushrooms and cook until soft and caramelized. 4 Then add the ground beef and turmeric, cooking until the beef is brown. Season with salt and set aside. 5 Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. 6 Add the zucchini, boil until tender, then remove and drain well. 7 Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh from each zucchini half and chop into small pieces. 8 Mix the chopped zucchini into the beef mixture. 9 Brush a little oil into the zucchini boats and fill with the beef mixture. 10 Place the filled boats on a tray and bake in the oven for 20 minutes. 11 Top with chopped parsley and serve.
