Pizza Zucchini Boats
Ingredients
- 4 large zucchini
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 (25 oz) jar of red sauce
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese (I used VioLife dairy-free)
- 1/4 cup turkey pepperoni slices
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil, then add your ground turkey. Use a wooden spoon to break up the turkey meat as it cooks. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and stir occasionally and let it cook for 7-8 minutes, until it is cooked through and lightly brown.
- Pour in the jar of red sauce, stir, and let it cook for 2-3 minutes to warm the sauce. Then remove from the heat and set aside.
- In the meantime, slice the zucchini lengthwise and carefully scoop out the seeds and insides with a spoon. Place the zucchini boats on a large baking sheet.
- Spoon the meat sauce into the boats to fill them up, then top with a few pieces of pepperoni and a sprinkle of cheese.
- Bake for 25 minutes, until the zucchini has softened and cooked through, and the pepperoni is crispy.
- Let them cool slightly and serve!
