How to make it

  1. 1

    First, cook your bacon in a skillet until it is wonderfully crispy. Take it out, crumble it up, and set it aside on a paper towel to drain.

  2. 2

    If you are using spiralized zucchini, make sure to gently pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove any extra moisture. If you prefer diced zucchini, quickly saute it for a few minutes to soften and reduce its water content.

  3. 3

    In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, half of your delicious shredded mozzarella, the fresh chopped green onions, and your crispy crumbled bacon. Mix everything together really well until it is all happy and blended.

  4. 4

    Now, gently fold in the prepared zucchini. You want to make sure it is evenly coated with all that creamy, cheesy goodness.

  5. 5

    Spoon this lovely mixture into a small oven safe baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly over the top, creating a beautiful cheesy crust.

  6. 6

    Bake in a preheated oven at 375F (190C) for about 20 to 25 minutes. You are looking for it to be bubbly and golden brown on top. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving and enjoy every bite.
