Portobello Stuffed Zucchini Boats
1 serving =26 cals
whole recipe = 156

3 medium zucchini, cut in half lengthwise
nonstick cooking spray
2 portobello mushrooms, finely chopped
1 med red pepper, finely chopped
1 T vinegar
3 T white wine (can use broth)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Scoop out insides of zucchini. Chop zucchini meat and set aside. Spray zucchini skins and bake for 10 mins. Meanwhile, cook mushroom, pepper, zucchini meat and vinegar in skillet over high heat. Add wine and cook until liquid is absorbed. Divide mixture among zucchini skins. Bake until tops are slightly browned.

I don't have a lower calorie variation with this b/c it is so low already. Two zucchini boats paired with some grilled or baked fish would make a lovely low calorie meal. 3 oz of white fish is only about 60 calories.

PS- I will update all the recipes soon with fat and fibre information. Feel free to leave comments with suggestions of things you'd like. I really enjoy creating "spa meals" and tweaking old recipes.
