If you're looking for yet another way to serve zucchini, try this flavorful entree from Michael Weaver of Norman, Oklahoma. "I received this recipe from a friend at work," he writes. "His wife fixes it for him, and he says it's his favorite. It's great when you have extra squash and don't know what to do with it."

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best zucchini boat he'd ever had. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less chili powder.

This recipe was a disaster! The zucchini boats were soggy and the filling was tasteless. I followed the recipe exactly, but something must have gone wrong. I won't be making this again.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The zucchini boats were a bit bland, and the filling was a bit dry. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of cheese, or if I had added some more vegetables to the filling.
