Carnitas zucchini boats

Carnitas and bell pepper stuffed zucchini

This could have been better looking I suppose, but it was tasty. My parents keep growing huge zucchinis, and I’m more than happy to take some off their hands. Tonight I cut a wedge out of the zucchini, baked them for a while, stuffed them with carnitas, roasted bell peppers, and cheddar cheese, and then baked them a little longer. I had beans and cheese on the side, and I topped one of the zucchini boats with chipotle salsa in that photo. The carnitas was pre-cooked, and the salsa and roasted bell peppers both came from jars, but it was still very tasty.
