Zucchini Pizza Boats

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. 2
   Wash zucchini well, then slice lengthwise.
3. 3
   Scoop out the zucchini flesh from each half using a spoon, leaving the halves about a centimeter thick. Save the scooped zucchini in a bow.
4. 4
   Place the hollowed zucchini pieces on a baking sheet.
5. 5
   Chop or mash the saved zucchini, then mix in the tomato sauce, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
6. 6
   Refill the zucchini halves with the mixture, then top with mozzarella cheese and black olives.*.
7. 7
   Place the tray in the oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned.**.
8. 8
   *Since these are supposed to mimic pizza, you could use other toppings (pepperoni, sausage, etc.).
9. 9
   **The longer the zucchini is in the oven, the softer it gets, so if you want firmer zucchini, feel free to take them out of the oven sooner.
