🧾Three Cheese Zucchini Rollatini ❤️🍽

Ingredients:
❤️ 2 medium zucchini
❤️ 200 ml tomato sauce/marinara
❤️ 180 g ricotta cheese
❤️ 30 g grated parmesan cheese
❤️ 120 g grated mozzarella cheese
❤️ 1 medium egg
❤️ 2 cloves garlic
❤️ 5-7 fresh basil leaves
❤️ 1/4 teaspoon each salt & black pepper, plus more salt for the zucchini noodles

Instructions:
❤️ Preheat oven to (220C)
❤️ Slice zucchini: First, removes stems from zucchinis and carefully use a mandoline to slice into 1/8 inch thin pieces (lengthwise). If using a knife, carefully try to slice them as close to 1/8 inch as possible.
❤️ ⁠Salt and quick-bake zucchini: Then lay zucchini noodles flat on a baking tray and dust with salt to help “sweat” excess moisture from noodles for about 5 minutes. Then bake zucchini for 1 minute *this helps soften them to roll properly and removes even more moisture*. Remove from oven and thoroughly pat dry with a paper towel. Note: if zucchini slices are thicker (especially if sliced by hand and not with a mandoline slicer) you may have to bake them for several minutes.
❤️ ⁠Mix ricottta filling ingredients: in a bowl, stir together ricotta, parmesan cheese, chopped basil, minced garlic, egg, and salt & black pepper.
❤️ ⁠Prepare baking dish: in a baking dish or casserole dish, spread (or more if needed) of tomato sauce. Set aside.
❤️ ⁠Fill and roll-up zucchini: Overlap two zucchini slices to create one larger piece. Spread 1 Tablespoon of ricotta filling evenly over zucchini noodles, then gently roll up. Place the fold of the rollatini on the bottom to prevent it from unrolling. Arrange in baking dish with tomato sauce and repeat until noodles and ricotta filling are used up.
❤️ ⁠Then spoon 1-2 Tablespoons of tomato sauce over top of each rollatini. Add mozzarella and parmesan cheese over top. Then bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, or until cheese is browned and zucchini is cooked.

Serve with fresh basil and enjoy!
