Stuffed Zucchinis have been around for some time in the Low Carb world and they are certainly delicious enough to take a regular place on the menu. Our Low Carb Bolognese Stuffed Zucchini Boats are very tasty and easy to make – a great mid-week meal!
I have been stuffing zucchinis with a variety of fillings for many years. They were an easy and last minute option when it came to large scale catering, and I was running low on ideas.
I like to cook a big batch of Low Carb Bolognese Sauce and freeze it into (weighed and labeled) portions. When I’m in need of a quick meal, half of the dish is already made – hence how these stuffed boats came about.
When making these boats, I save the centers that were removed to add to a soup or vegetable mash. Some people will chop them and add them into the Bolognese filling – it’s entirely up to you.
This recipe makes 4 serves. 1 serve is 2 zucchini boats, or 1 whole zucchini.
