Recipe
Scoop out insides of zucchini (a melon baller works great), leaving 1/4-inch shell.
Chop zucchini pulp; set aside. Saute onion in oil in heavy skillet; add mushrooms,
garlic and reserved chopped zucchini; cook over medium heat until
most of the moisture has evaporated. Stir in cream cheese cut in chunks, egg,
Parmesan cheese, parsley and seasonings. Mix well; cook for a few minutes. Cool
filling slightly, fill zucchini shells. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese and
paprika. Place on flat baking pan; bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees until bubbly and
lightly browned.
