How to make stuffed zucchini:

In a large saucepan, cook zucchini in boiling salted water for 10 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and cool slightly.

Slice zucchini in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Chop pulp and set aside.

In a 13 x 9-inch baking dish, arrange zucchini halves, cut side up.

In large skillet, brown beef over medium heat. Add scallion. Cook 5 minutes or until soft. Drain off fat.

Add remaining ingredients, except cheese. Cook 5 minutes or until mushrooms are soft. Divide mixture evenly among zucchini shells. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Cover and refrigerate until 1 hour before serving time.

To serve, preheat oven to 350°. Remove cover and bake 30 to 35 minutes or until heated through. Serves 6.
