I think it’s safe to say that I love tacos! Between my Taco Cupcakes to my Beer Battered Fish Tacos, it’s definitely something that is eaten regularly in this house. This recipe for Taco Zucchini is a great way to get your taco fix while still getting some veggies into you. I like my zucchini to still have a little crunch however, if you want it to be softer you can bake the zucchini after you slice it for about 15 minutes to soften it up some more.
