Description
Zucchini boats stuffed with blue cheese and buttery leeks are so simple to make and are delicious as a vegetarian entree or lunch.
Method
Step 1 of 3
Pre-heat the oven to 200°C. Heat half of the oil in a large pan and cook the zucchinis in batches, cut side down, for 2-3 minutes. Scoop out the centre of each zucchini out with a teaspoon and reserve. Place the zucchini boats in an ovenproof dish.
Step 2 of 3
Heat the rest of the oil in the pan with the butter and cook the leeks and zucchini centres for 5 minutes. Spoon the mix into the zucchini boats.
Step 3 of 3
Sprinkle over crumbled blue cheese and pecans and roast for 20 minutes.
