    4 large zucchini
    1 cup red bell pepper chopped

    2 teaspoons garlic minced
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 medium tomato seeded and chopped

    Cut zucchini lengthwise into halves. Hollow out zucchini halves with sharp knife, leaving 1/4 inch shell; reserve shells. Chop zucchini that was removed from the shell. Saute chopped zucchini, bell pepper, onion and garlic in oil in large skillet until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Add tomato and basil; saute until tomato is wilted and mixture is fairly dry, about 5 minutes.

    Push vegetables to one side of skillet; add beans to other side of skillet. Coarsely mash about half the beans. Mix beans and 2 tablespoons cheese into zucchini mixture. Spoon mixture into zucchini shells. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons of cheese. Grill, covered over meduim-hot coals until zucchini shells are crisp-tender when pierced with a sharp knife, 10 to 15 minutes.
