I prepared almost exactly as directed, except that I didn't use mint, and I used 2% shredded mexican cheese instead, and added a few TBS of diced green chiles. I loved these (so did hubby and teenage son), and I will definitely make these again! Could mix up ingredients based on what you have on hand.

I ate this with dinner one night and lunch the next day. My boyfriend was not a fan, but it left me with plenty of leftovers!

Great recipe, I used basil instead of mint more garlic, 1/2 teas Italian seasoning, pinch of red pepper flakes and "Panko" bread crumbs, used only 2 teas olive oil to sauté filling and sprayed the zucchini and top of filling with Pam olive oil spray. Baked at 350 till tender. Served as an appetizer with individual 1/4 cup servings of homemade pasta sauce for dipping. This recipe is a keeper.

This was so good! I didn't have any mint so I used fresh basil from the garden, and added extra garlic. I'm going to use this again and again and again. My non-dieting husband loved it, too.
