Zucchini Lasagna Rolls

You must be signed in to print this content

No pasta, no problem! In this dish, zucchini does all the work. Using a vegetable peeler makes thin, pliable strips of zucchini that create the perfect little dumplings of ricotta filling - no need to cook them beforehand.

The cheesy filling gets tons of savory flavor from chopped prosciutto - but feel free to omit to keep it vegetarian! Comforting and cheesy but still bright and fresh tasting, this is a great dinner all year long.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. With a rubber spatula, mix the ricotta, spinach, oregano, Parmesan, prosciutto, egg and salt in a medium bowl to blend. Set aside.
  3. Evenly coat a large baking dish or braising pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Pour one cup of the marinara sauce over the bottom of the pan.
  4. Meanwhile, assemble the zucchini rolls on a clean cutting board or work surface. Dollop about a tablespoon of the ricotta spinach filling on one end of a zucchini slice, then roll the zucchini up. Place the rolls in the skillet either standing up or seam-side down, making sure they aren't touching one another so there is room for steam to escape. Repeat with the remaining slices of zucchini and ricotta filling.

  5. Carefully ladle the remaining cup of marinara over and in between the zucchini rolls. Sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella. Bake in the oven uncovered for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and the excess liquid from the zucchini has evaporated. Serve hot.

    These were surprisingly easy to make and were absolutely delicious. The mandolin makes perfect strips and they roll up fast. Another great go to!

    You can certainly freeze this recipe. It is best to thaw out overnight before reheating!

    This recipe, as simple as it is, is absolutely delicious! I recommend using a mandoline rather than a veggie peeler (which did not produce consistent results). I had alot of filling left over so I also boiled some rigatoni and mixed it all together and baked it for dinners the rest of the week. I recommend three or four zucchinis if you don’t want to use any pasta! Also, I didn’t have time to make my own marinara so I used Rao’s and it was perfect.
