Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Zucchini

All the flavors of cheesesteak packed into zucchini for a delicious summer dinner!

Stuffed zucchini is one of my favorite meals to make but one I hate take pictures of. I just feel like it never photographs well or I just don’t have the right perspective to shoot it? Either way, always happy to share a recipe that may not look incredible but we don’t judge a book by its cover. Some of the best food isn’t pretty food. This recipe has all the flavors of cheesesteak including Cheez Whiz!

What You Need:

  • 4 medium zucchini

  • 1 lb. ground beef

  • 1 cup onion, diced

  • 1 cup green bell pepper, diced

  • 2 cloves minced garlic

  • 1 Tbsp. soy sauce

  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

  • 1/2 cup Cheez Whiz

  • Montreal Steak Seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste if needed

  • 4 oz. provolone cheese (sliced or shredded)

Directions:

  1. Cut zucchinis in half lengthwise and use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the inside pulp (reserve it!). Leave about 1/4 inch around the edges.

  2. Meanwhile in a skillet over medium high heat, cook ground beef with onion until beef is cooked through. Drain, if needed.

  3. Add bell pepper and zucchini pulp. Cook until tender about 5 minutes.

  4. Add garlic, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for an additional minute.

  5. Add Cheez Whiz, steak seasoning, salt, and pepper.

  6. Add beef mixture evenly between zucchini halves on a lined baking sheet.

  7. Top with provolone cheese and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes.
