Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat Oven to 400° F. Line a sheet pan with foil and set aside. Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and use a spoon to hollow out the centers of each half leaving about a 1/4 inch border all the way around. Place the prepared zucchini onto the sheet pan.
  2. In a large bowl stir together the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, hot sauce, green onions, salt and pepper until combined. Stir in the shredded chicken until it's coated. Divide the mixture evenly into the prepared zucchini boats.
  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the zucchini is tender. Remove from the oven and top with shredded cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted.
  4. While the zucchini boats are baking whisk together all of the ingredients for the ranch dressing in a small bowl. Serve the dressing on the side or dolloped on top of the finished zucchini boats.
