Feta-Stuffed Zucchini

I just tried these for the first time, and they are AMAZING!!! It was so yummy, I forgot I was eating a vegetable! If you like zucchini, you should definitely give these a try!

Ingredients:
2 zucchini (about 7 inches long, halved lengthwise)
1 tablespoon Brummel & Brown or other low-fat butter spread
1 large shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg white
1 1/2 tablespoon flour
2 ounces feta, crumbled
Paprika

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease an ovenproof dish. With a small knife, cut around the zucchini, leaving a rim. Cross hatch the center, then scoop out with a grapefruit knife or the tip of a small spoon.

In a small skillet, melt the butter until shimmery. Add the zucchini scoopings, shallot and garlic and saute until soft.

In a small bowl, beat the egg white lightly. Stir in the flour, feta and cooked zucchini. Stuff the zucchini boats. Sprinkle with paprika.

Bake for 25 minutes 30 minutes, then brown slightly under the broiler.

The entire batch is only 5 weight watcher points! :-)
