Introduction

Finally a way I'll eat Zucchini :)

I'm assuming the sodium is less than what is listed by rinsing the crab meat before using based on the following information.

By simply draining and rinsing canned food before reheating it, sodium can be reduced by 23-45% according to a study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic

Ingredients

    Ingredients
    3 medium zucchini
    12 ounce(s) crabmeat, drained and rinsed
    1 1/2 ounce(s) cream cheese, low fat, softened
    3/4 teaspoon lemon juice
    1 1/2tablespoon mayonnaise, light
    1 1/2 cup(s) cheese, mozzarella, part-skim, shredded
    3 teaspoons bread crumbs

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Discard ends of the zucchini and cut in half lengthwise. Microwave for 3 minutes.
Scoop out the pulp, leaving zucchini shells. Chop the pulp and mix with remaining ingredients; use only 1/2 cup mozzarella.
Place zucchini shells in a baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray and fill each with crabmeat mixture (it will overflow the shells). Top with the rest of the mozzarella and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake 20–30 minutes, until the mozzarella is lightly browned
