Steps:
- Place zucchini into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove zucchini from water and cut in half lengthwise; cool slightly.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Scoop the flesh from each zucchini half, leaving a narrow margin of flesh on the skin to form a shell. Invert each shell (or "slipper") onto a paper towel to drain, reserving scooped flesh.
- Chop scooped zucchini flesh and mix with cottage cheese, Colby cheese, red bell pepper, egg, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until filling is evenly mixed. Spoon filling into the "slippers". Arrange "slippers" on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbling, about 15 minutes. Turn oven's broiler on and broil until cheese is browned if desired, 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish with parsley sprigs.

[email protected]These zucchini slippers were a bit too greasy for my taste. I blotted them with paper towels before serving and they were much better.
