Soft Zucchini Taco Shells: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Abby Lawson
  • Total Time: 27 minute

Ingredients

– 2 medium zucchini
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional)
– Olive oil spray or cooking oil
– Optional fillings (ground meat, beans, veggies, lettuce, salsa, etc.)


Instructions

Creating Soft Zucchini Taco Shells is simple and straightforward. Follow these steps for perfect results:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for cooking your zucchini shells.
2. Prepare Zucchini: Wash and slice the zucchini lengthwise to create long strips. Aim for about 1/4 inch thick.
3. Dry Zucchini: Lay the zucchini slices on paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for about 10 minutes. This helps draw out extra moisture.
4. Season Zucchini: Pat the zucchini dry and sprinkle with black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add shredded cheese on top if desired.
5. Coat Baking Sheet: Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil to prevent sticking.
6. Arrange Zucchini: Place the zucchini strips on the baking sheet in a single layer.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crisp. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
8. Shape Shells: If you want a curved shape, you can carefully bend them into a taco shape while they are still warm.
9. Let Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and allow the taco shells to cool for a couple of minutes.

Now your Soft Zucchini Taco Shells are ready for delicious fillings!
