I made this on 26 Jul 2021 and followed the recipe exactly. I used yellow zucchini, exactly 1 kilo (2 lb) and for the stuffing I used a store brand not name brand. Easy to put together and the taste is excellent! My parents said this is 10 out of 10 stars as well. Highly recommended if you like zucchini or squash and want a change of pace from simply fried.
