Zucchini Spaghetti Boats
My family loves spaghetti, but I try not to consume too many carbohydrates at night. Which is why I often turn to pasta substitutes like zucchini or spaghetti squash. These are also a great way to sneak vegetables into your kids diet!
We have so much zucchini growing in our garden right now so I decided to utilize zucchini to make spaghetti boats instead of using pasta.
With only a few extra steps, it is just as delicious and kid approved!
You start by slicing zucchini boats in half and scooping out the inside. Season the zucchini with salt and pepper and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, you make your meat sauce.
Fill each zucchini with your meat sauce.
Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and bake again until cheese is melted and bubbly!
You still get all of the flavor of traditional meat sauce without all of the carbs!
