Ingredients

    794 grams Zucchini
    0.5 tsp Kosher Salt (by 65PLUS1)
    1 dash Pepper, black
    1 cup Bertolli Marinara (by WJORION)
    1 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
    .66 cup Ricotta Cheese, part skim milk
    8 tbsp grated cheese, pecorino romano (by KURMET)
    4 tsp Basil, fresh (1 leaf chopped = approx 1 tsp) (by MSHEBERT)
    1 serving Garlic, cooked (1 clove / serving)
    0.75 cup Cheese, Kroger Part Skim Mozzarella Cheese Shredded

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400F. Spread 1/4 cup marinara sauce on the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
2. Cut the zucchini lengthwise, into 1/4-inch thick slices until you have a total of 12 slices about the same size. It’s easiest to do this with a mandolin. My mandolin is from OXO.
3. Season both sides of the zucchini with 1/2 tsp salt and pepper, then grill on a grill pan over high heat to help dry out the zucchini, until pliable and grill marks form, but not fully cooked, about 2 minutes on each side.
4. In a medium bowl, beat the egg then mix together with ricotta, Pecorino Romano, basil, garlic, 1/8 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper.
5. Spread the ricotta mixture (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each) evenly onto each zucchini slice, spreading to cover.
6. Roll up slices and arrange them each seam side down in the prepared dish. Top each with 1 tbsp marinara sauce and 1 tbsp mozzarella cheese and tightly cover with foil.
7. Bake 20 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and melted.
