*Preheat oven to 350° F. Prepare a baking dish with non-stick spray.
*Cut zucchini in half lengthwise. Hollow out each zucchini half to make "boats". Cut a very thin strip off the bottom to keep it from rolling in the baking dish. Place zucchini boats in the baking dish.
*Chop what was scooped out of the zucchini center as well as the thin strip from the bottom.
*In a pan on the stove, saute onions and chopped zucchini in olive oil until translucent. Approximately 5 to 8 minutes. 
*Add ground beef and spinach and cook until beef is just done. Strain off any excess liquid.
*Mix in Locally Seasoned Madras Curry Blend, salt and pepper. 
*Spoon beef and spinach mixture into zucchini "boats".
*Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. They're done when a fork, inserted in the center, goes all the way to the bottom.
*Garnish lightly with lemon zest and serve. Happy eating!
