1. Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise. Scoop out the centers with a melon ball scoop, leaving a 1/2-inch edge. (Save the centers for another use.) Brush the zucchini on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the zucchini, cut side down, for about 2 minutes. Turn and cook 2 to 3 more minutes. The zucchini will still be slightly crisp and bright green. Remove to a plate. Cool.
3. Prepare the guacamole. Then, when the zucchini are completely cool, fill the centers with guacamole. (Reserve extra guacamole.) Put 2 halves in the center of each of 4 serving plates. Surround with diced tomato. Sprinkle crumbled cheese over all. Serve at room temperature.
