Step 1

Preheat oven to Line a 9x12 baking dish with tin foil and set aside.

Step 2

Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise. With a grapefruit spoon scoop out the inside pulp of the zucchini leaving about 1/4" around the sides. Place inside the prepared baking dish, brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and set aside.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté until onions are fragrant and translucent about 5 minutes. While onions are cooking, crumble the tempeh between your fingers so that it resembles ground beef.

Step 4

Add crumbled tempeh and taco seasoning to the onion, stirring to coat. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until tempeh is browned. Stir in tomato sauce and water. Let cook, stirring occasionally until water has mostly evaporated. About 3 minutes.

Step 5

Spoon taco tempeh filling into the zucchini cavities so that it fills it up with a rounded top. Bake, covered, for 35 minutes. Remove tin foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until zucchini is easily pierced with a fork.

Step 6

While zucchini boats are baking, prepare your toppings.

Step 7

Remove zucchini boats from the oven, let cool 10 minutes. Sprinkle with toppings and serve immediately.
