Cooking Guidelines
To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:
- Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

- Chicken 165° F |
- Ground Beef 160° F |
- Ground Turkey 165° F |

1 Prepare the Zucchini
Combine zucchini, 1/4 tsp. salt, a pinch of pepper, half the Italian seasoning (reserve remaining for meatloaves), and 1 1/2 tsp. olive oil in provided tray.
Push zucchini to one side of tray and top with half the panko (reserve remaining for meatloaves), then Parmesan. -
2 Add the Meatloaves
In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine ground beef, remaining panko, remaining Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper.
In another mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and mozzarella. Form cheese mixture into two evenly-sized balls.Form beef mixture into two equally-sized ovals. Press your thumb into center of each oval and place a cheese ball into the well. Close meat around cheese and re-form into an oval. Form a tight seal so cheese stays inside meat. Add meatloaves to empty side of tray and top evenly with ketchup and marinara. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake uncovered in hot oven until zucchini is tender and meatloaves reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 25-30 minutes.
Carefully remove from oven. Bon appétit!
