Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh to create a boat shape.
3. Lightly brush the zucchini halves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes until slightly tender.
4. While the zucchinis are baking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
5. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
6. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the veggies and scramble together until the eggs are cooked to your preference. If using, add the shredded cheese and stir until melted.
7. Remove the zucchini boats from the oven. Carefully fill each zucchini boat with the scrambled egg mixture.
8. Return the filled zucchini boats to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until everything is heated through.
9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
