Mexican Zucchini Burrito Boats

It was delicious, and great to have left overs for tomorrow

Nice but not worth the effort.

I used a pack of taco mix and topped it with extra salsa and sour cream.

Next time maybe try roasting it on a baking tray rather than the casserole dish, the courgettes could have done with being crisper

I decided to go overboard and use up all the ingredients I had for this so made waay more than I was expecting! (Woops) It kept very well though and I used the left overs (when the courgettes ran out (zucchini if youre american)) as a nachos topper! I also added the scooped out insides of the courgettes to the mix after thoroughly draining them and it added a great texture! Would definitely recommend doing that. Added buckets of chilli powder and cumin. Will make again.

I used yellow zucchini instead of the green zucchini and it was absolutely delicious.

Definitely a make again!

Pre-baked the zucchini, so the scooping aspect others said was time consuming was done in a minute. Tastewise I thought they turned out fine but the 4-year old was not impressed. Moreover I quickly became hungry again. Thus I don't plan to make this recipe again.

This recipe was delicious. I love salt so I added salt and garlic powder. I also substituted white rice.

Substituted zucchini for butternut squash. Tasty but didn't use enough oil to soften the squash.

Fun experience! Will try roasting zucchinis before filling them next time!

Really good, will make for great leftovers! I forgot the rice but I think it's better that way.

It turned out really good... Next time I might add chicken.

Quicken easy to bring to Work for lunch It holds for a couple of days in the fridge Easy for my meal prep

We like the cooked Zucchini and the filling but not sure they were the best together. Not bad, but for us, not so great we'll eat it super often. Definitely worth you trying it. See what you think.

These were delicious and I couldn't even tell that no meat was used! Whole family love them!

I added in ground turkey

Enjoyed this and stuck to the recipe. Maybe will add sautéed garlic, vegan meat and black olives. Included zuchini inners and had lots of filling left over for stuffing peppers or over tortilla chips next week.

The filling was delicious, the zucchini was too much effort though.

Turned out great. It did take quite a while to prepare scooping out the zucchini.

Yummy! I added some salsa and chicken to the mix, omitted the rice.

I used feta cheese and put sesame oil in my zucchini before adding the rest.

so it makes a LOT of filling. i only got "average sized" zucchini at the grocery store and i had enough filling leftover to probably fill another 3-4. thankfully though the filling is delicious, so i just scooped the rest into a bowl and ate it with sour cream while waiting for the zuccs to bake lmao. added 4 cloves of garlic bc duh, made vegan sans the corn so i used a whole onion and put some vegan cheddar on top. 💯💯💯

This meal was a big hit, even with our 10 and 12 year olds. I always double the recipe to make 8 servings, so we have leftovers for lunches. I forgot the black beans, so I mixed in 1/2 pound of ground beef. So good and lots of "filling" leftover that might make good nachos/tortilla filling.

Covered the zucchini in sesame oil like another user mentioned and even though I forgot the salt it was delicious. My kids snubbed it but they only like chicken nuggets and pizza so what do they know 😂 I thought it was wonderful!

It's not bad but it's also not great.. very healthy though

Was ok. Watery in the bottom of the pan. I added sour cream

The zucchini didn’t cook all the way through, bet the filling was very tasty.

Very easy to make. Pretty filling and my family loved it. Will make it again. Especially for some of my vegetarian family members. I think I would have added more spicy to it.

I put some sour cream on top and it was great. I used the hollowed out zucchini left overs to make a little side dish. I added them to the pan while the dish baked with the left over corn I had and added some seasoning and it was good.

These were so yummy and flavorful!! 10/10 recommend!!

1/2 tsp of salt seemed like plenty. Would not put more.

This was delicious and got the stamp of approval from the husband and 8 year old. I didn't use rice, I added ground beef, and I used taco seasoning.

So used arugula in place of cilantro and ground beef over brown rice. It was delicious.

love this recipe! quickly has become a staple in our house

Good stuff. Used sesame oil instead of olive oil to give the zucchini more flavor. Also mixed it with tuna instead of rice, and chili sauce for spice.

Good - a little bland. Would add some lime creama next time.

I would season the zucchini with salt and pepper before adding the mixture on top next time.

Delicious, easy to make. Added feta cheese and it was perfection. I ended up with some leftovers of the topping, and will use them in a burrito for lunch!

Was a hit. I didn't use jalapenos, but use very yummy!!

Excellent as directed. We added chalula hot sauce post cook. Discard the zucchini interior, or use eleswhere.

Delicious! Keep a close eye on the broiling time lol

I used canned mixed beans in chilli sauce. A little time consuming to do but a nice vegetarian option to have. Also added sriracha (for those who like the spice) on top after cooking to give an extra kick, although didn't use the chili in the recipe.

I added mince and tomato paste instead of black beans and salsa , was delishes

For Bell peppers

Would possibly try this in a pepper rather than zucchini. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible, either

Great recipe! I wish I added more salt and a protein like ground beef.

Really tasty. I made my salsa quite spicy which really came through. Lots left over so I’ll add some avocado and cheese and make burritos.

I did not notice this was vegetarian when I saved the recipe or that it had rice in it. I did not want another meal with rice in it, so I substituted ground turkey meat. I kept everything else, and it was delicious! I also incorporated the zucchini insides back into the mixture, so I did not waste them. I chopped it a little and then cooked it with the onions until it softened. Although I used this as a base recipe, I will definitely keep this in rotation! Thank you for sharing!

Should've salted the zucchini, it was quite bland. Will try with eggplant next time. Update: the zucchini wasn't the problem, it was the filling I didn't like, tried it with eggplant too.

Salt the zucchini and maybe use infused oil

Easy to make, only thing I'm doing next time is making it a little more spicy

I used vegan shredded cheese instead. Not bad, but didn't melt like i was hoping. I also subbed quinoa and the leftovers became a great salad

family loved it

Only thing I'd do different is make sure I got larger or thicker zucchini. Otherwise loved it!

Family loves zucchini boats and this was a nice twist to my normal recipe. I did use my own taco seasoning that is similar to the spices listed. Is easy to make enough for a second meal later.

I gave this a thumbs up because for a healthy dish it was good… probably not my favorite though. I found it a little bland, but I did use hatch chili instead of jalapeños. I’d rank it a 5 out of 10, not bad but not my favorite.

Descent meal, a bit to spicy for me, so I added more cheese on top and a bit of a creamy lime dip.

Next time I will do it in a pepper.

Tasty but indeed as somebody recommend it I also preovened the courgette and it's delicious! :)

These were very good but could be better. The zucchini didn’t really add anything to it. You could just eat the filling on its own and be satisfied. Would make again but would doctor it up a bit.

Hubby said, "really good, all the way around." Sweet with a little heat. Definitely a flavorful way of using up a garden full of zucchini!

How high and how long do you cook the zucchini pizza? I guess I’m blind because I can’t see that instruction. Thank you! I appreciate any help I can get.

Loved it. Less coriander and even nicer.

It was really good! I was nervous about what my 5 year old would think, but she gobbled it up! She said it was the best!

Delicious!

Excellent alternative for Taco Thursday. Personally I don’t care for zucchini but the fam loves it. I did a potato for myself.

I added italian turkey sausage and a clove of garlic with the onions and peppers. Very good.

Not enough zucchini for all the filling!! Plus I forgot to add the cooked rice, so it would have been WAY too much filling if I had remembered. Too many steps for me, as I ALSO forgot to add the salsa (ugh!!)!! Although it has lots of healthy ingredients!

Made this for dinner tonight. I read others' notes so I did a little improvising. I added seasoned grilled chicken and sour scream into the mix. I also seasoned the mix with some slap yo momma seasoning. Another thing I did different was I baked the zucchini for about 10 minutes before I put the mix in to help it soften a little more. We enjoyed it.

2 years on, and this is still a staple dish in my family. Even people who don’t like zucchini agreed that this was really good. I find that I usually end up having more filling than I can fit in the zucchini’s, simply due to baking dish limitations, but the filling freezes really well & can be used again later, or just for a quesadilla filling.

I loved it but it was not a house favorite. It probably could've pulled more likes if it had meat in it.

There were pros and cons to the recipe. I liked that the ingredients were cheap and the recipe was healthy The flavor seemed to be lacking a little bit. Between adding zucchini and rice, there just wasn't enough going on. I think this recipe could be good with more spice and maybe some more salt. Like others said, meat would add flavor too.

I didn't have time to cook the rice so I used wholemeal breadcrumbs instead, and I also didn't have salsa but used deseeded fresh tomatoes and it still turned out really nicely.

Delicious!

I did it wraps rather than zucchini but still worked well

Use ground beef.

This was easy to make, and tasted fresh with all the fresh ingredients. We will definitely make it again! The chili powder is a must!

This recipe was great! Next time we might microwave the zucchini to make it a bit softer (it was still decently crunchy) but the filling was DELICIOUS.

Delicious, refrigerates well for leftovers. Filling and healthy. Big fan of this dish! My partners a cheese fanatic, so will definitely use extra cheese next time - but for me it was enough cheese

Was too lazy to make the zucchini boats so just used burrito bowl instead. Made enough leftovers to fill a few zuchinnis the next day.

Used whole jalapeño-seeds and all!

I added ground beef. This was really good. The zucchini still had a slight crunch to it. Super easy and quick dinner.

this recipe is wonderful!! i should have definitely melted the cheese after cooking, but oh well. the filling is phenomenal too. i could have totally just ate it without the zucchini!

pre cook the courgette a bit and add less spice, have a fresh salad with it

I am not a fan of zucchini, and I have never tried riced cauliflower but I am trying to be healthier, finding easy ways to stick to healthy eating and these definitely fit those categories. I made a couple of changes based on the feedback of other users. I tried the riced cauliflower. ( I couldn't tell the difference). I added pickled jalapeno's and used medium salsa with a dash of cayenne. I like spicy flavors. Without the rice, it was spicy, but delicious. I cooked the zucchini 5 minutes short since I knew I was going to cook them in the toaster oven for the next 4 days and they turned out perfect in the toaster oven. Zucchini wasn't too mushy. I think I will probably add some chorizo sausage or fool around with guacamole crema. All in all, this will become a staple for me, just the toppings might change.

this is so yummy dude, I use riced cauliflower instead if rice though.

I didn’t add rice, it was on the side and fillings from zucchini I chopped on small pieces and fried with all ingredients together

uh, this is kind of like- the white version of a Mexican taco but stuffed into a zucchini. can't say i liked it as a Mexican girl. I wanted to explore, try other versions of different foods. Don't bother making this if you want an obvious authentic feel. (obviously this isn't authentic) The flavor isn't that bad, just sort of bland. It might be good with tomatillo sauce, or some sort of salsa. But I'm not making it again.

Surprisingly good dish that doesn’t have meat in it.
