Stuffed Zucchini Boats
These Stuffed Zucchini Boats are a satisfying low-lectin meal built around simple, whole ingredients instead of grains, legumes, tomatoes, or peppers. The zucchini is hollowed, lightly roasted, and filled with a savory mixture of ground beef or turkey, mushrooms, onion, garlic, spinach, herbs, and optional aged Parmesan. It is a great example of how low-lectin cooking does not have to feel restrictive. It can still be hearty, comforting, and full of familiar flavor.
