Went the make dinner last night and found I had no Vegetable. Only thing I cold find was one lonely zucchini. I thought "what can I do with ONE zucchini!?" This was perfect! I'm with Bergy. I didn't pre-cook. 20 minutes in the oven and they were cooked through but still had some crunch. I liked them even more once they cooled off. I could easily eat these cold in my lunch!

This is a very tasty easy recipe and the neat thing was that I used lite cheese , only 1 oz for both halves and just a tsp of parmesan on each . It is not only delicious but healthy too. I did not pre cook the zuke - we like them crunchy and 15 minutes in the oven does it - melts the cheese and heats it right through Thanks mer@ for posting
