Notes
- Shred your own cheese if you can
- Don't feel like you are bound to mozzarella cheese, you can use any type of cheese for your pizza boats.
- Finely dice some red or yellow bell pepper and sprinkle them on top of your zucchini pizza boats for more veggie goodness!
- Top with some fresh herbs like basil for extra herby flavors.
- Feel free to top with your favorite pizza toppings to change things up such as red onions, mushrooms, olives, sausage, pineapple, ham, and more.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Do not freeze
