Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cook and stir the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until the meat is browned, breaking the beef up into crumbles as it cooks, about 10 minutes. Drain off excess fat, and transfer the beef into a mixing bowl. Slice the zucchini in half the long way, and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/2-inch thick shell all around the zucchini. Chop the scooped-out zucchini flesh, and add to mixing bowl. Stir in the bread crumbs, garlic, spaghetti sauce, black olives, and Parmesan cheese; mix the stuffing well. Lightly stuff both halves of the zucchini with the meat mixture. Place the zucchini halves into a baking dish, and cover tightly with foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, remove from oven, and remove the foil. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over each zucchini half. Move an oven rack to within 6 inches of the oven broiler's heat source, turn on the broiler, and broil the zucchini until the mozzarella cheese is browned and bubbling, about 5 minutes.

BAKED STUFFED ZUCCHINI
This is not a very healthy dish, but wow is it tasty. I came up with this recipe because I was always waiting for the zucchini in my garden to be "just the right size" next thing I knew I had these ginormous zucchini. There is only so much zucchini bread that you can make... I used grape tomatoes from my garden too.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350.
- 2. Wash zucchini well, remove stem, and cut in half the long way. Scoop out seeds to leave a well in the center of the fruit. Place skin down on a baking dish of appropriate size for four halves. (The picture shows some special zucchini that I picked up at the farm stand. The green one is an eight ball zucchini, which I originally made the recipe for.)
- 3. In a small pan melt butter and add bread crumbs and garlic powder. Mix well.
- 4. Place slices of onion in each zucchini half. Cover with bread crumb mixture and then decoratively place tomato halves on top.
- 5. Cook until the zuchini is soft, approximately 30 minutes. If the vegetables are getting too brown, cover with aluminum foil until soft.
- 6. Add slices of fresh mozzerella to the top and broil for 2-5 minutes until cheese just starts to melt. (You can use shredded if fresh mozzerella is not available, it still tastes great!)

- Trim the thin green leaves at the base of the blossom and pull out the yellow pistil at the center of the blossom. At this point, it's almost inevitable that you will create a vertical rip in the blossom in the process of removing the pistil. Rinse and place on paper towels to dry.
- In a bowl combine ricotta; thinly sliced prosciutto cotto (cooked ham); grated Pecorino Romano cheese; an egg; freshly chopped basil; an egg; and salt and pepper.
- I placed my filling in a freezer bag with the tip cut off (or a pastry bag) to pipe the filling into the blossoms. Alternately, use a spoon or even your fingers to place some filling in each blossom.
- Prepare 2 bowls, one with a beaten egg and the second with dried unseasoned breadcrumbs. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to each bowl. Carefully dredge each filled blossom first in the egg wash, allowing excess egg to drip off. Then roll in the breadcrumbs.
