Zucchini With Chickpea and Mushroom Stuffing image

This is a recipe I found on allrecipes and tweaked it a little. The zucchini are hollowed out and filled with sauteed onions, mushrooms, zucchini, lemon juice, herbs and spices. Very healthy and tasty recipe! If you aren't concerned about fat content, top them with shredded cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.

This recipe is a great way to sneak some vegetables into your diet. My kids loved the zucchini and didn't even realize they were eating vegetables.

I would have liked more detailed instructions on how to prepare the zucchini. I wasn't sure if I should peel it or not.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked more seasoning in the stuffing.
