Lasagna Zucchini Roll-Ups

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat oven to 400°F. Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips (a vegetable peeler or mandoline works), salt them and let sit 10 minutes, then pat dry.

2. 2

   Brown the beef in a skillet 7 minutes, drain, then stir in half the marinara.

3. 3

   Mix the ricotta, egg, half the Parmesan, chopped basil and a pinch of salt.

4. 4

   Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce in a baking dish. Spread each zucchini strip with ricotta, roll up and stand seam-side down in the dish; spoon the remaining marinara over.

5. 5

   Top with mozzarella and the rest of the Parmesan and bake 20-25 minutes until bubbly. Let rest 5 minutes.
