Best Meatball Zucchini Boats Recipe Tips

I used store bough pesto sauce to cut time on this recipe and make it really easy. Equally, you can use homemade sauce.
Same for the Alfredo sauce, I used store-bought. However, you can use homemade or any sauce that you like. In addition, marinara or vodka sauce work really well in this recipe.
The fresh zucchini that I used are not wilted so they can hold their shape well.
Similarly, I used a cookie scoop to scoop out the flesh of the zucchini. It makes it easier, but you can use any spoon, just be careful not to break the zucchini.
Other delicious fillings or toppings are fresh basil, marinara sauce, more cheese, and chopped jalapenos.

Can you freeze the Meatball Zucchini Boats

Yes, the Meatballs freeze well. Layer them into an aluminum foil pan. Then, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, and then wrap it in aluminum foil and freeze for up to 3 month. To reheat add additional sauce on top and place in the oven at 350F for about 20-30 minutes or until hot.
