Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise. Using a spoon or melon baller, hollow out the center of each zucchini half, creating a boat-like cavity. Reserve the scooped-out zucchini flesh for another use or add it to the filling.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and stir to coat the meat evenly.
- Pour 1/4 cup green chile sauce in the bottom of casserole dish to prevent zucchini from sticking to bottom of pan.
- Stir in additional green chile enchilada sauce and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to combine the flavors.
- Fill each zucchini boat with the taco meat mixture, dividing it evenly among the boats.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each zucchini boat, covering the meat mixture.
- Place the stuffed zucchini boats on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. Transfer them to the preheated oven.
- Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Once cooked, remove the zucchini boats from the oven. Garnish with sliced jalapenos and any other desired toppings, such as sour cream, diced tomatoes, or chopped cilantro.
- Serve the Taco Stuffed Zucchini Boats hot as a main dish. Enjoy!
