Method
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Prepare the salsa and guacamole by combining the ingredients in a small bowl, cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Cut the top and base from each zucchini to make a flat surface then cut each into 2. Bring a pan of water to the boil, reduce the heat then place the zucchini in and cook for 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain and place on a lightly greased baking tray.
- When cool enough, scoop seeds out of zucchini centers.
- Fry the onions and peppers in the olive oil until softened. Add the garlic, chili, cumin and chili flakes and cook for a further 2 minutes. Stir in the Quorn Meatless Grounds and stock, and cook over a medium heat for 4-5 minutes. Stir in half of the grated cheese.
- Fill the zucchini with the Quorn Meatless Grounds, top with the remaining cheese and bake for 15 minutes until the cheese is golden brown.
- Enjoy with the guacamole and salsa.
