This is a yummy dish with zucchini boats filled with tuna, tomatoes, and cheese. We bake them with tasty potatoes. It's a fun meal that looks like little boats. It's not too hard to make and tastes really good!

Ingredients

4 medium zucchini squash
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 (5 oz) cans chunk light tuna in water, drained
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 pound baby potatoes, halved
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme

Method

1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Wash and dry the zucchini and baby potatoes.
3
Trim and halve zucchini lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds to create a hollow space in each half.
4
Place zucchini halves on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
5
Bake zucchini in the preheated oven for 5 minutes until just starting to soften.
6
In a bowl, mix together the drained tuna, sun-dried tomatoes, mayonnaise, lemon juice, mozzarella cheese, parsley, basil, and the remaining salt and pepper.
7
Fill the zucchini boats with the tuna mixture.
8
Return the stuffed zucchini to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the filling is hot and the cheese is melted.
9
While the zucchini is baking, toss the halved baby potatoes with the remaining olive oil, oregano, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
10
Spread the potatoes on a separate baking sheet and place in the oven with the zucchini.
11
Roast the potatoes for 25 minutes, or until golden and fork-tender, stirring halfway through.
12
Serve the herbed tuna and tomato stuffed zucchini alongside the roasted potatoes.
