I'm not sure why this recipe has so many good reviews. It looks pretty boring to me.

I'm not a fan of the combination of zucchini and cheese. I think they just don't go together.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more seasoning.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my zucchini bake didn't turn out very well. It was too watery.
