Step 1

Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides until they're about ¼ inch thick, saving the chopped zucchini. If the zucchini flesh is too watery, pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

Place the zucchini halves cut side up on the baking sheet and spray them with cooking oil. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top. Bake for 15 minutes.

While the zucchini are baking, cook the onion in a skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Then add the beef and cook until it's no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess grease if necessary.
