Zucchini Lasagna Spirals

Serves 6
Ingredients
  • 2-3 cups Cucina Antica Tomato Basil cooking sauce
  • 12 oz ricotta
  • 2 tbsp basil, chopped
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, freshly grated 
  • oz mozzarella cheese, shredded 
  • 4 medium zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise 
  • salt 
Preparation
Lay the zucchini strips out across a cooling rack (cooling rack allows excess water to drain). Sprinkle salt across the tops of the zucchini and let sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the water sweat out of the zucchini. Pat the water off the zucchini and then flip them over and repeat with the next side. Wipe off excess salt with a towel.

Preheat your oven to 375°F

In a medium bowl mix ricotta cheese, basil, mozzarella, and egg. Stir well.

Spread 1/2 cup Cucina Antica Tomato Basil on the bottom of casserole dish.

Lay out the sliced zucchini noodles and spread about 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture over each individual zucchini noodle. Add a spoonful of Cucina Antica Tomato Basil over the top of the ricotta.

Carefully roll up the zucchini and place in the casserole dish. 

Spread extra Cucina Antica Tomato Basil cooking sauce over the top of the rolls. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano on top.

Bake for about 45 minutes or until the cheese on top is a nice golden brown.
Buon Appetito!
