Nice lo-carb appetizer. In the paste I've used button mushrooms, this time I used baby portabella and I think I like it better.
ps: I made way too much stuffing this time and the next day I stuffed it into mini sweet peppers for lunch. Yummy.

How to Make Mushroom stuffed zucchini cups

Step-by-Step

Saute mushrooms and onions until tender.
Remove mushrooms from heat and stir in cilantro and parmesan.
Cut zucchini into 1 inch slices. Scoop out the seeds from each slice creating a cup. Remember, cups have bottoms.
ps: I use a strawberry huller to scoop the seeds, but a melon baller would work too.
Season cups with salt and pepper.
Fill cups with mushroom mixture.
Place cups in steamer basket and steam for 20 minutes.
