Keto Taco Zucchini Dogs
Zucchini dogs serve as the ‘shells’ for these taco dogs. The shells are just tender enough the hold a filling of ground beef, taco seasoning blend, diced tomatoes and chilis, and plenty of melted cheddar cheese. Simply slice in with a knife and fork.

Step 1
Preheat an oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a large zucchini by slicing it in half lengthwise. Use a paring knife and spoon to scoop out the centers of the squash, leaving 2, ½-inch thick shells. Sprinkle the salt, paprika, and olive oil over the zucchini.Step 2
Turn the zucchini shells over onto a sheet tray. Bake the tray for 12 minutes. Set the zucchini aside to cool when done.Step 3
While the zucchini is cooking, combine the ground beef with the olive oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, cumin, and red pepper in a pan over high heat. Cook until the beef has browned.Step 4
Turn the heat down to medium and stir in the diced tomatoes and chilis. Let the pan cook undisturbed for just 2 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to low and stir in the cheddar cheese until it melts.Step 5
Flip over the zucchini shells and fill each one with the beef taco filling. Use a spoon to pack the shells with the filling so it adheres with the melted cheese. Serve immediately while hot.
