1/3 cup of diced celery

5 medium zucchini

1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix

1 3/4 cups of water

Salt and pepper to taste

Meanwhile, cut zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds, leaving ¼" shell. Place in large baking dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. When sausage is done, remove from heat and stir in stuffing and water. Stuff each squash half with some of the sausage mixture. Cover pan and bake 20 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with shredded parmesan cheese and bake an additional 10 to 20 minutes or until squash is tender and stuffing is browned.
