"OMG my husband and I loved this. I only used 2 small zucchini but followed the rest of the recipe to a T, and it was great. I'll be making this again and again! I used a Pampered Chef tool for capping strawberries to scrape out the middle of the zucchini. I highly suggested something like that. If you aren't careful, you'll tear the zucchini! Yum! When I woke up this morning, I thought of how good my dinner was. Also made a zucchni oatmeal cake yesterday and it is so good!!"
