A very nice dinner!

Had this for lunch and it was surprisingly good (and also aesthetically pleasing haha)! A great light meal for summer days:)

Another great one! My picky hubby enjoyed it! I did have to add real cheese to his but that's about it. Everything else was vegan. So easy to make vegetarian for those who aren't ready to let go of dairy but still need to eat more veggies. What kind of vegetarian doesn't like vegetables? My husband lol. Which is why this recipe is so special! Thank you❤️

I forgot to mention that the scooping out the zucchini part really took me forever and made this prep time a lot longer than noted. I was definitely rushing because my poor hubby was hungry lol. But he survived and I got an upper body workout 😊
Also, I did add avocado slices and some Himalayan salt on top 😋 Yum!

Made this for dinner tonight, and oh my gosh! How good is that crunchy topping! Can't wait for leftovers tomorrow 😋

Taste good but took more than one hour. Prepare carrot, zucchini and what you can a day before.

Lorena - May 21, 2024, 8:18 p.m.

That's true! Definitely took me a little over an hour but for me it was the scooping out the zucchini that took me forever. What a workout! Lol at least I got some exercise 💪🏽😉

Delicious. I loved the Italian flavors. My husband named them zucchini boats. I’ll definitely make this again.


Pamela - Oct. 8, 2023, 9:30 p.m.

Cooked perfectly according to recipe.


Mallory - Sept. 5, 2023, 9:42 p.m.

Very tasty and light. A great way to use up the seasons courgettes. I also added some flaked almonds for extra crunch.

A lovely idea to add flaked almonds, Mallory, thank you!

Hi, I just made this. It came together really easily and was delicious. I left out the olives and cooked brown lentils from scratch - putting them on first and stirring them through the sauce just before stuffing the zucchini - so it didn’t take much longer than using canned lentils. The best thing though was that I did not feel like cooking at all tonight but had some zucchini in the fridge so I just searched zucchini here, saw this simple recipe and voilà. Thanks!

Awe we're so happy to hear, Jen - this is exactly what we hope the app can help with! 🤩

Mm mm mmm 🤌 I am typing this as I’m eating 😂 the olives add such a nice touch! I will definitely be having this recipe again!


Amanda K - July 19, 2023, 7:02 p.m.

This was so good! The zucchini was perfectly cooked. The only addition I made was to add a little citrus on top before eating (I felt like it needed an acid). Will definitely being using this recipe a lot this summer!

A lovely idea, Amanda, thank you! 😃


Jenn - July 15, 2023, 3:58 p.m.

Super filling and delicious. Surprisingly easy to make too.

Just finished eating it! Perfect for a summer lunch.
I harvested most ingredients from the garden this morning, and looked for a recipe including things I harvested, there were so many amazing ideas! Thank you ☀️
First time using the PUL app, 10/10 experience!

Yayyy!! I'm so glad you're enjoying it, Eszter. Fresh veggies from your garden sound lovely 🥰

Had it for lunch today, it was delicious


Wally - June 14, 2023, 10:28 p.m.

Very tasty I was happy not to see a cheese loaded filling. In late spring and summer it is always a challenge to find taste uses for zucchini. I never tried scooping and pre baking the skin. I used a mix of dry and fresh herbs. The smell from the oven filled the kitchen. Definitely a keeper.

So happy to hear, Wally, thank you! 🤗
