ingredients
4 small zucchini, halved and ends trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, minced
1 small carrot, grated
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups cooked rice
1 chipotle pepper en adobo, pureed
directions
Scoop out the zucchini flesh, keeping about 1/4 inch of the flesh and the shells intact. Place the zucchini shells, cut side up, in a lightly oiled 5 1/2 to 6 quart crockpot. Chop the pulp.
Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add the onion, carrot, and chopped zucchini, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the cumin, rice, and pureed chipotle pepper, season with salt and pepper to taste, and mix well.
Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly into the zucchini. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Cover and cook on Low 3 to 4 hours, until the zucchini is tender. Serve hot.
