"This is a great way to put all the extra squash and zucchini from your summer garden to good use before it goes to waste. These can be frozen and reheated later. They're great in sandwiches, dipped in your favorite sauce, or by themselves. If you're looking for a healthier recipe, omit the cheese and add some nuts, grain, or extra fresh veggies (e.g. broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, etc.)."
