Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Heat a large skillet or pot to high heat. Add olive oil and onion. Cook onion until golden. Add ground beef, garlic and spices. Cook ground beef for 3-5 minutes or until fully browned. Add ½ cup marinara sauce and potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes. While the ground beef is cooking, cut zucchini lengthwise in half; scoop out centers, leaving ¼-inch-thick shells. Combine ½ cup water and 1 cup marinara sauce in a large 13x9 casserole dish.
