  • Heat the oil in a large skillet set over medium high heat Add the onion and cook 5-6 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Fold in the rice. 
  • Arrange the zucchini boats on a baking sheet or in a pan. Spoon the filling into the shells, then top with Swiss slices.
  • Bake 20 minutes, or until the zucchini is soft and the cheese is melted. 
  • Serve hot.
