It was good, but we only did a third of the recipe and still had too much! Maybe it's because I went light on the toppings. I enjoyed it, but hubby who made the dish had problems getting the batter to stick to the zucchinis when frying them. It was very tasty. - 03 Mar 2003 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Very good, but again, very fattening. I used low fat sour cream, so that might help a little! - 24 Nov 2002 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
