Zucchini slices stuffed with cream cheese, Italian seasonings, olives, bell peppers, and pepperoni for delicious pizza cups.
Ingredients:
  • 4 medium zucchini
  • 1 package (3 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/3 cup chopped turkey pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup pizza cheese blend (2 oz)
  • 3 tablespoons Progresso™ Italian style bread crumbs
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with parchment paper or foil.
  • Trim the ends off the zucchinis and slice them into 1 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Carefully scoop out the flesh using a small spoon, being cautious not to pierce through the bottom. Discard the flesh or set it aside for another recipe.
  • Combine cream cheese, Italian seasoning, olives, bell pepper, pepperoni, and half of the cheese in a bowl. Fill each zucchini cup with 1 to 2 spoonfuls of the mixture. Arrange on a baking sheet and sprinkle bread crumbs on top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and bake for an additional 20 minutes until cheese is melted and golden brown.
