1 tbsp olive oil

For the filling

1 lb ground beef
1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium red bell pepper, finely diced
3 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced
2 tsp garlic-infused olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp salt
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
2
Trim the ends from each zucchini and halve them lengthwise. Using a spoon or melon baller, scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Roughly chop the scooped flesh and set it aside. Brush the inside of each shell with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with 1/4 tsp salt, then arrange them cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.
