1 lb of ground turkey (or any protein of your choosing)
½ cup of diced tomatoes
1 onion (red or yellow)
1 can of black beans
½ tomato sauce
½ cup chicken broth
1 bunch of cilantro
1 lime
2-3 cloves of garlic
1 ½ cup of shredded cheese
Spices:
1 tsp Cumin
1 tbsp Chili Powder
Salt/Pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F
While the oven preheats, slice your zucchinis (long ways), then scoop out the insides creating your boat. Save those fillings! Set zucchini boats into a tray and put aside.
Sauté your onion with a splash of olive oil for roughly 2-3 mins
Add in the garlic, ground turkey, zucchini fillings and seasonings. Break up the mix occasionally to help it cook thoroughly.
Stir in tomato sauce, chicken stock, and black beans, and bring to a simmer. Then reduce the heat to medium-low allowing the sauce to reduce for 5 mins.
Remove from heat and add in a handful of cilantro and lime juice. Spoon taco filling into those zucchini boats.
Sprinkle diced tomatoes and cheese over top the boats and place in oven for 10-15mins until zucchini boats are tender.
