INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce (no salt added)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1/4 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Wash the zucchini and slice it in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out some of the flesh to create a boat, leaving about 1/4 inch thick edges.
Place the zucchini boats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the insides lightly with olive oil and season with a bit of salt and pepper.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground turkey. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Season with garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Once the turkey is mostly cooked through, add the diced red bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes until softened.
Spoon a layer of marinara sauce into each zucchini boat, then evenly distribute the cooked turkey mixture over them.
Top each boat with shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
