    I have been making a nearly identical recipe for a couple years. (great minds think alike, right?) It goes over BIG with my co-workers and my young kids. At work, we use light 3-cheese ranch. My kids preffer no dip. It freezes well wrapped in foil, reheat in a toaster overn for a winter snack. - 8/12/09

    Made this recipe tonight using crushed Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned stuffing. The zucchini was tender on the inside and crunchy from the bread crumbs on the outside and the parmesan cheese added a nice flavor. Our 14 yr. old son, who is not a fan of zucchini, loved it. Will definitely make again - 8/24/09

    Does the calorie count include the olive oil (which is omitted from the recipe) and the lemon aoli sauce(what is that?) - 8/25/09

    Yes the calorie count does include the olive oil ... sorry to have omited it in the version that appears. Lemon Aoli is a mayonnise base sauce with lemon juice (look up recipe).

    Tried this recipe for dinner last night. My husband and I loved it. The zucchini cooks up soft on the inside but crispy on the outside, and was delicious. We have a bumper crop from our garden right now so we're trying to eat it every night with dinner, and this was another great way to have it. - 8/18/09
