Steps

1 hour

1

Gather your ingredients. Cut the zucchinis lengthwise and cook them in salted water for about 10 to 15 minutes (make sure they are al dente), then set aside.
2

Fry the bacon, and in the same oil, sauté the onion (add more oil if necessary).
3

Then add the garlic, meat, salt, pepper, and bay leaves, and cook for about 15 minutes.
4

Add the tomatoes and puree, and cook for about 20 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
5

Add a bit of butter, salt, and pepper to the zucchinis.
6

Top with the meat and cheese, and microwave until the cheese melts. You can add a little sauce on top and enjoy.
7

Clean the zucchinis by removing all the seeds, but do not throw them away (be careful not to break the zucchinis).
8

Remember that the ingredients can be adjusted to taste, more or less. ☺

With the seeds you removed, you can make a delicious cream, like I do. Look for it in my recipes, it's called zucchini seed and epazote cream. You'll love it and have a complete dish.
