Place the quinoa in a sieve, rinse, and cook in hot water for about 10 minutes. Dice the shallot and fry. Dice the zucchini flesh and tomatoes, and add them. Add the cooked quinoa, cottage cheese, and a little tomato paste, and mix until smooth. Season the mixture and add a pinch of grated Parmesan cheese. Stuff the zucchini halves with the mixture.
