Zucchini Boats

Zucchini Boats Recipe

Zucchini boats are a healthy main dish made from stuffing scooped out zucchinis with delicious buffalo chicken filling and topped with a ranch dressing. We make a few healthy swaps like using Primal Kitchen’s Buffalo Sauce and Greek yogurt in the ranch dressing for a less caloric, more nutrient-dense meal.
