Cut zucchini in half lengthwise; scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-in. shells.
Drizzle with 2 Tablespoons oil. Rub the oil over the zucchini so it is well coated. Season with salt and pepper.

Add ground turkey and spices and cook, breaking up occasionally until just cooked through.
Stir in tomato sauce and water and bring to a simmer then reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer until sauce has reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in half the cheese, cilantro and lime juice.
