Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Drizzle a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season the zucchini halves with salt and pepper. Add to the baking sheet and turn to coat with the oil. Arrange the zucchini cut-side down in a single layer. Roast until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the cumin and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook 30 seconds. Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and chicken broth until combined. Cook until the broth is reduced to a thick sauce, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Turn the zucchini boats cut-side up and fill with the turkey mixture, packing it in. Sprinkle with the cheese and roast until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is softened, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir together the yogurt and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the zucchini boats with the yogurt mixture and top with the dill.

STUFFED ZUCCHINI BOATS
This savory side dish from Billie Moss of El Sobrante, California is reason enough to give zucchini extra space in your garden. "I like to serve these veggie-stuffed boats with a loaf of homemade bread and slices of melon and avocado nestled on crisp lettuce leaves," she suggests. "They're also wonderful paired with any meat."

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Trim off the ends of each zucchini. Cut each in half crosswise. Cut each piece in half lengthwise. Scoop out the centers, leaving a shell at least 1/4-inch thick. Reserve and finely chop the scooped-out portions. There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
- Pour enough water to cover the shells into a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Add the shells, and let simmer 2 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
- Clean and finely chop the mushrooms. There should be about 2 cups.
- Heat the butter in a heavy skillet, and add the onions and garlic. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the mushrooms and lemon juice. Stir and cook about 1 minute. Add the chopped zucchini, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook about 3 minutes until the excess moisture evaporates.
- Spoon and scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl, and let cool slightly. Add 1 cup of the bread crumbs, the parsley, 2 tablespoons of the cheese, and blend thoroughly. Stir in the egg yolk.
- With 1 tablespoon of the oil, brush the inside of a baking dish large enough to hold the shells in one layer.
- Spoon an equal portion of the filling into each shell, and smooth over the top.
- Blend the remaining 2 tablespoons bread crumbs with the remaining 2 tablespoons cheese, and sprinkle over the top of the stuffed zucchini boats. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil.

Chop any coarse pieces and transfer to a medium bowl with the egg, bread crumbs, cheese, garlic, tomatoes, lemon zest, thyme, pine nuts, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix until combined, using your hands if necessary.
- Drizzle the hollowed-out zucchini with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon in the filling and bake for 16 to 18 minutes or until the filling is set and is golden brown and crisp on top.
