    I varied the ingredients slightly. I used very large zucchini from the garden and added garlic salt. The sodium level was too high so next time will use ground garlic instead. Everyone loved this recipe! - 7/28/12

    I used chicken breast instead of beef because I had it on hand, turned out great - 10/15/11

    I added a can of mushrooms, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano while browning the beef. I topped each boat with a provolone slice. - 7/2/11

    Trying this tonight -- sounds yummy, and I've got lots of zucchini to use up! UPDATE: Hubby says he wants it again even though mine turned out very bland; Next time I'll spice it up more. - 8/17/09
