Ingredients

• 0.5 pounds ground beef
• 1 large zucchini , ends trimmed
• 1 , 16 ounce
• 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cups bread crumbs
• ½ , 6 ounce
• 2 cloves garlic , minced
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. 2 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Transfer beef into a large mixing bowl.
3. 3 Slice zucchini in half lengthwise, then use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell all around zucchini. Chop scooped-out zucchini flesh and add to beef in the mixing bowl.
4. 4 Stir spaghetti sauce, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, black olives, and garlic into beef-zucchini mixture until well combined. Lightly stuff both halves of zucchini with filling. Place filled zucchini halves into a baking dish; cover tightly with foil.
5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven; turn on the broiler and adjust an oven rack to within 6 inches of the broiler's heat source.
6. 6 Uncover the baking dish; sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over each zucchini half. Broil until cheese is browned and bubbling, about 5 minutes.
