Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F
  2. Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, and scoop out the insides with a spoon, creating boat-like shapes. Leave about 1/4 inch of flesh on the zucchini. Chop the scooped zucchini flesh finely and set it aside
  3. In a large skillet, cook ground turkey over medium heat until browned. Add chopped onion and minced garlic to skillet and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in chopped zucchini and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until tender
  4. Add the can of diced tomatoes to the skillet and sprinkle in the dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for a few more minutes until the mixture thickens slightly
  5. Place the zucchini boats in a baking dish and fill each boat with the turkey and tomato mixture. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each zucchini boat
  6. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned. Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy!
