2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

In a large skillet, saute the onion and chopped zucchini in oil until tender. Remove from the heat. Stir in the egg, bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Fill shells. Place in a greased baking dish. Bake at 375° for 15 minutes or until filling reaches 160° and is heated through.
