This zucchini taco bowl is super delicious, lower in carbohydrates and will leave you feeling full and satisfied. I used grilled zucchini as the base for a tasty and easy healthy dinner. If you love tacos or taco salad, you will love this recipe.

The grilled zucchini is more filling than when I eat this with tortilla chips alone, so it’s more bang for your calorie and carb buck. Which I am always happy about. Sometimes I add a few crushed corn chips to enhance the authentic masa corn flavor to the dish.
