This was absolutely wonderful Bergy. Our Uncle Fluke thinks Zucchini is suppose to be a foot long so this recipe worked well for us. (I Like them much smaller) Loved the combination. Didn't use cilantro and used cheddar cheese because we were having company and was afraid he wouldn't like gouda and the company raved about this. Got the recipe so he could make it for his folks. Thanks again for a repeat recipe this summer.

I used 5 small zucchini to use up the filling and tried the cheddar. They were wonderful, even my 6yr. old ate one and she hates zucchini! If time is ever an issue, you can replace the tomatoes, garlic, cilantro and chili with fresh salsa from the deli section. Next time I'll try the gouda!

The flavors were great. Everyone commented on how great the zucchini was. I think that mine must be much smaller than yours because I filled 3 and still had filling left over. I will cook some more again tomorrow to finish off the filling. Thanks for posting, this one is a real keeper.
