How To Make stuffed zucchini boats

• Step 1
  Fill a large pot with water and bring to a rolling boil. Wash and trim stem ends from zucchini and slice lengthwise. Place zucchini into the boiling water and par-boil for 2-3 minutes.(Do not overcook). Remove from water and place on cutting board or work surface.
• Step 2
  Scoop flesh and seeds from zucchini halves using a melon baller or spoon, starting about 1/2 inch from the ends and leaving about 1/2 inch shell, creating a boat. Chop and reserve flesh and seeds.
• Step 3
  In a medium bowl; mix the flesh, seeds, sausage, ground beef, bread crumbs, garlic and parmesan cheese together, mixing well.(I just use my hands)!
• Step 4
  Stuff each squash with meat mixture. Pour 1/4 of the spaghetti sauce into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place zucchini halves onto the spaghetti sauce and pour the remaining sauce over the tops of zucchini.
• Step 5
  Cover with foil and bake in a 350º oven for 45 minutes or until sausage and beef are cooked through. Remove foil and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese. Return to oven until cheese is melted. Serve.
