These "zucchini boats" are good. Really good. AND good for you.
Normally I'm not a huge fan of ground turkey. Maybe because when I cook it, it has a weird gray color. But when you add the Taco seasoning it's a game changer.
Recipe.
Cut zucchini in half and carve out the middle (I use a spoon)
Cook 1 pound of Jenni-O ground turkey on the stove. When it's fully cooked, add a little water and Taco seasoning (as much seasoning as you prefer--I like it more mild)
Spoon cooked turkey into the zucchini. Add cut up fresh mushrooms and olives (or whatever toppings you like).
Cook at 400 degrees for about 7 minutes. Then add some mozzarella cheese and continue cooking for about 5 more minutes or until zucchini is tender when stabbed with a fork.
Fast. Easy. And healthy.
I'm still trying to warm my kids up to zucchini. They aren't big fans. So I just put the extra ground turkey and toppings in a corn taco shell for them.
The original idea for this came from an Instagram account I was following but now can't find. Probably because one of my kids accidentally un-followed them. Anyway, it was tweaked from that to our liking.
