A Little Slice of Heaven

3 medium sized zucchini
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup shredded Velveeta cheese (you can use whichever cheese you like)
5 sliced bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 scallions, green part, sliced thin (you can use chives instead)
Sour cream
Ground red pepper

Preheat the oven to 400.
Cut the zucchini lengthwise in half. Using a melon baller, scoop out the insides. Cut each half into thirds (or in half depending on how long the zucchini is).
Place face up on a baking sheet, sprayed with cooking spray.
Mix together the olive oil and garlic powder. Brush inside with the mixture and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until tender.
Sprinkle with a generous amount of cheese and bake 5 minutes more.
Top with crumbled bacon, sour cream, scallions and ground red pepper (omit if you don’t like spice)
