- 2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
- 20 g mozzarella cheese (or other semi-soft cheese)

- Heat oil in a frying pan. Add onions and garlic, saute for one minute.
- Add squash innards and cook, stirring, about 2-3 minutes until most of the excess water has evaporated.
- Mix in cheese and tomato paste, cook 2-3 more minutes.
- Spoon this filling evenly into each squash boat. Sprinkle seasoning and pepper on top.
- Place boats in a nonstick baking dish, and bake at 170C for 20-25 minutes (depending on the size and thickness of the boats).
