"Just in time for the bountiful harvest! A change from the usual recipes, these can be appetizers when made in mini muffin tins. For a side dish, use regular size tins. This recipe came from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette."

  1. I found this recipe just OK. Needed more zip, but is easy to put together.
     
  2. A great snack to pack. Might trying adding just a bit more flavoring spices or diff cheese
     
  3. There are delicious! I went well with grilled chicken but would compliment any number of grilled or roasted meats. I used mozzerella as stated but think that it would be nice with any number of cheeses including swiss, cheddar, montery jack.... DH and I both loved it. Thanks for a great one Jeski.
     
  4. This is a great easy, delicious recipe. I doubled it and it still wasn't enough. I would recommend tripling it. Really listen to the tip to dry out the zucchini. Some in the last batch were a little soggy. I sprinkled Parmesan cheese on the top of mine for presentation and used the only cheese I had on had (monterey jack).
