Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 zucchini
  • 1 to 2 pounds cooked chicken breast shredded
  • 1 8-ounce package cream cheese softened
  • 1 packet (2 Tbsp) ranch seasoning
  • ½ cup buffalo wing sauce your favorite
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

For blue cheese sauce:

  • ¼ cup blue cheese crumbles
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ cup milk

Instructions

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Slice zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out the middle of the vegetable with a spoon leaving about 1/2 inch along the outside creating a “boat.” NOTE: If you prefer the zucchini to be soft when serving, bake the zucchini boat for 5 to 10 minutes prior to stuffing.
  • In a stand mixer, combine the chicken, cream cheese, ranch seasoning, ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce and ¼ cup cheese.
  • Spoon the mixture into the zucchini boats, pressing down. Pile extra mixture on top until the boats are overflowing slightly. Add the remaining cheese and buffalo sauce over the top..
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and zucchini is tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a food processor, blend the blue cheese and heavy whipping cream until thick. Slowly add the milk until the desired consistency is reached. Serve with zucchini boats.
