    Ingredients

    • 4 medium zucchinis

    • 1 cup marinara sauce

    • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

    • 1.5 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

    • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

    • 0.5 tsp garlic powder

    • 0.5 tsp salt

    • 0.25 tsp black pepper

    Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a large baking dish by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.
    • Slice each zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out the center, creating a boat, then place them in the baking dish.
    • Mix the shredded chicken with marinara sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
    • Fill each zucchini boat with the chicken mixture, ensuring they are generously filled to the top edges.
    • Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the filled zucchini boats, followed by a layer of mozzarella cheese.
    • Add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top of the mozzarella for an extra hint of flavor.
    • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until zucchini is tender.
    • Take the dish out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    Dunkin’s Fall 2026 Menu Just Landed — And It Comes With a Celebrity Breakfast

    Seasonal lattes and specialty drinks can carry a hefty sugar and calorie load, largely from flavored syrups and whipped toppings. To keep your order lighter, ask for the syrup pumps reduced, skip the whipped topping, or opt for a protein-based option like a nutty or espresso-forward latte over a swirl or chiller-style drink. Choosing a smaller size or an iced coffee over a blended drink is also an easy way to enjoy the seasonal flavor without the full indulgence.

    The Last Corn: How to Honor Summer’s Most Fleeting Vegetable

    Fresh sweet corn is a meaningful source of lutein and zeaxanthin — carotenoid antioxidants that accumulate specifically in the retina and that research consistently associates with reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. These compounds are fat-soluble, meaning that eating corn with butter significantly increases their absorption compared to eating it plain. The specific sweetness of peak-season corn also reflects a higher sugar content and a correspondingly higher concentration of the water-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients that develop during the full ripening process — making the peak-season local ear nutritionally superior to its commercially processed alternative.
