- 2 large zucchinis sliced lengthwise into thin strips
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese divided
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish
Prepare the Zucchini: Use a mandoline or sharp knife to slice zucchini lengthwise into thin strips. Aim for about 1/8-inch thickness to ensure they roll easily.
Make the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, half of the mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well incorporated.
Assemble the Roll-Ups: Lay out each zucchini slice, spread a spoonful of the ricotta mixture on top, then roll up the slice. Repeat until all zucchini slices are used.
Arrange in Baking Dish: Place each roll-up seam-side down in the dish. Pour marinara sauce over the top, ensuring all roll-ups are covered. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly over the dish.
Bake and Serve: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and golden. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil, and serve immediately.
