These stuffed zucchini are a great way to use up leftover zucchini. I had a few zucchini that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make these. They were delicious! I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The zucchini was cooked perfectly and the filling was very flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These stuffed zucchini were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices to the filling.

I love stuffed zucchini! They're so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of ground beef to the filling for extra flavor.

My grandmother used to make these stuffed zucchini all the time when I was growing up. They're so delicious and comforting, and I love that they're a healthy way to get your vegetables. I recently made them for my own family, and they were a hit! Eve
