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 1
    Saute mushrooms and onions until tender.
  • Step 2
    Remove mushrooms from heat and stir in cilantro and parmesan.
  • Step 3
    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.
  • Step 4
    Season cups with salt and pepper.
  • Step 5
    Fill cups with mushroom mixture.
  • Step 6
    Place cups in steamer basket and steam for 20 minutes.
