Ingredients
  

  • 3 large zucchini
  • 1 can enchilada sauce
  • 1 lb ground turkey or beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F

  3. While you cook your meat, slice your zucchini in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and pulp, lesving about 1/4 in wall and squash; discard seeds and pulp.
  4. Place the cut zucchini in a casserole dish. Brush the boats on all sides with the oil, then season with salt and pepper.

  6. When your meat mixture is heated through, fill each zucchini half with an equal amount of the meat sauce, and top with shredded cheese.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is brown and bubbling.
