Zucchini boats with ground beef



1 lb grass fed grass finished 15% fat ground beef
3 large zucchini
onions
garlic
coconut oil
2 eggs
ground hemp
oregano
thyme
pepper
paprika

These huge cheap zucchini were smiling at me at the Farmers Market. I eat about 1/3 lb of meat per meal, so three large zucchini boats makes for perfect portioning.

Carefully use a knife and spoon to scoop out the zucchini halves. I saved the flesh to cook up in my eggs tomorrow morning.



Cook the onions and garlic in the coconut oil until soft, then add the meat until just brown. Season this mixture heavily with oregano, thyme, pepper and paprika because the zucchini are not seasoned.

Remove this mixture from heat and let it cool off completely before adding two eggs and some ground hemp. Gently mix and spoon into your zucchini. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
