Preheat oven to 150 degrees. Then cut off the tails of the courgettes. Grease a baking dish with olive oil, add the kucchini and garlic on top of it, and leave to bake for about 50 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the zucchini, chill them slightly, carefully remove the pulp from them using a spoon and place it on a separate plate. Do not turn off the oven.
Step 3
Heat oil in a skillet and lightly sauté the onions for 5 minutes. Add carrots, oregano, cook for another 5 minutes, until carrots are tender. Add the zucchini pulp and chopped artichokes and cook for another 2 minutes.

Combine the lemon zest, salt, chopped nuts and add to the mixture in a skillet. Fill each zucchini tightly with this mixture, crumble the feta cheese on top, and leave in the oven for another 15-20 minutes (until the cheese turns golden).
