Place zucchini in bowl and lightly salt. Let sit for 15 minutes and squeeze out all the water that is rendered. Roll in a towel and twist again. This is to remove all possible water. Mix with rest of ingredients in a bowl. Spread on a well-oiled baking pan and bake in a 350F oven until top is dry and lightly browned (20 minutes). Brush a little oil on surface and broil a few minutes--but don't burn. Spread with spaghetti sauce, 1 cup mozzarella, and any toppings. You may, of coarse use your favorite cheeses. Return to oven and bake at 350F until done. About another 20 minutes.
I also just recently read that the smaller zucchini have the sweeter, better flavor.
