Keto Beef and Bacon Zucchini Boats are a delicious way to stay on your low carb diet while using your bounty of zucchini.
It’s that time of year for us Northerners. Zucchini season. When you have far more zucchini you know what to do with. I keep saying I wish I could plant half a plant, and really I think 1/4 of a plant would work great. But since that’s not a possibility, I keep handing out zucchini to whomever will take it.
I also keep looking for new recipes to use it. I have made zoodles, grilled zucchini, zucchini & sausage, and Zucchini Boats. I think the Zucchini Boats are the Hardworking Husband’s favorite way to eat them. His way of telling me that he wants me to make something again is to say “I really liked ______.” He’s said about 5 times in the last few days that he really liked the zucchini boats. So I guess I better make them again.
The Hardworking Husband and I have been working on dropping some weight since the beginning of the year. Like normal, he’s done way better than I have at that. I have set a goal to lose 30 lbs by our vacation next year. I want to look great in a bikini. We started with Whole 30 in January and moved onto Keto. These Zucchini Boats fit great with the Keto diet. They are filling without all the carbs. And delicious too.
