Ingredients

6 servings

  • 4 cups shredded unpeeled zucchini
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 0.5 cup chopped onion
  • 1 (15 ounce) can Italian-style tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 0.5 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 0.5 cup sliced black olives

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Place zucchini into a colander and sprinkle with salt; let drain for 15 minutes, then squeeze out the moisture.
  • Combine zucchini, 1 cup mozzarella, and 1/2 cup Monterey Jack in a large bowl. Mix in Parmesan and eggs until well combined. Press into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and onion to the hot skillet; cook and stir until beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Stir in tomato sauce and Italian seasoning.
  • Remove crust from the oven and spoon sauce mixture over top. Scatter bell pepper, mushrooms, black olives, and remaining mozzarella and Monterey Jack over sauce.
  • Return to the oven and bake until heated through, about 20 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before slicing into six pieces and serving.
