This is the quickest, most kid friendly (even though I didn’t share it with the boys lol), gluten free, and low carb spin for taco night. These amazing taco stuffed zucchini boats are stuffed with ground beef (or ground turkey), seasoned with cumin, taco seasoning, pico de gallo, and finished off with mexican shredded cheese for an amazing taste that will have your taste buds grateful.
I actually got the inspiration from my sorority sister (Darcelle) whose IG I am always stalking. I love trying new ideas and placing my own unique spin on different dishes. Add salsa and a little sour cream as a topper and you are ready to eat. I know for a fact I will eat a lot of this yummy goodness this summer.
