Stuffed Baked Zucchini image

A great low calorie/low fat recipe. I created this recipe by significantly modifying Tish's stuffed zucchini recipe (#17260) to create a much healthier version. This is a fun recipe because you can add many different ingredients and still get great results! I've added corn, prosciutto....the possibilities are endless!
