Ingredients

Scale

For the Zoodles:

3 medium zucchini, spiralized

For the Taco Meat:

1 lb ground turkey or beef

1 (1 oz) packet taco seasoning

1 (10 oz) can tomatoes with green chilies

For the Cheese Sauce:

1 tbsp butter

1 tsp garlic, minced

1 cup unsweetened almond milk

¼ cup heavy cream

3 oz cream cheese

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Top:

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly salt zoodles and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture, then pat dry.

In a skillet, brown the ground meat. Drain fat, add taco seasoning and tomatoes with green chilies. Simmer for 5 minutes.

For the cheese sauce: in a saucepan, melt butter and sauté garlic. Add almond milk and heavy cream, bring to a low simmer. Stir in cream cheese until melted, then whisk in cheddar cheese until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine zoodles, taco meat, and cheese sauce. Mix well.

Pour mixture into a greased casserole dish. Top with cheddar and mozzarella.

Bake for 20–25 minutes, until bubbly and golden. Let cool slightly before serving.
