Description

In this easy, healthy zucchini taco skillet recipe, spiralized zucchini, corn, tomatoes, and black beans join lean ground beef in about 30 minutes.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon olive oil
3/4 pound lean ground beef
1 1/2 tablespoons reduced-sodium taco seasoning mix
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can no-salt-added fire-roasted tomatoes with juices
1 (14 ounce) can reduced-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup fresh corn kernels
1/2 cup water
3 cups spiralized zucchini
1/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped green onion

Directions

1 Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef; cook, stirring to break up lumps, for 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Add taco seasoning and salt; cook, stirring often, until beef is browned, about 2 minutes more. Stir in tomatoes, beans, corn, and water; bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
2 Stir in zucchini until incorporated. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until zucchini is just tender, about 3 minutes.
3 Divide mixture among 4 bowls; top servings with Cheddar cheese and green onion.
