Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425º F (218º C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut boths end of the zucchini. Carefully, slice lengthways into 1/4-inch slices (see notes). Lightly brush each slice with olive oil. Place on baking trays and roast for 5 – 8 minutes, or until fork tender and lightly brown. Set aside.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 400º F (200º C).
  • Combine ricotta, pecorino, lemon zest, tarragon, basil, spices, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Place marinara sauce into a 9x9 baking dish; evenly distribute the cherry tomatoes over the marinara sauce.
  • Add about 1 tablespoon of the ricotta mixture on each slice of zucchini and roll to enclose. Place rolls over the marianara sauce and between the tomatoes. Drizzle with heavy cream and sprinkle Parmesan cheese, if using.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbling and golden. Serve hot.

Notes

 
EXTRA TIPS:
  • Don't slice the zucchini too thin or they will break when you try to roll them. I got about 5 slices from each zucchini, of course, it will depend on the size of the zucchinis. I suggest buying zucchini that are long. Discard the two outer slices that are mainly skin.
  • Let the strips of zucchini cool down before you roll up.
  • If you like to try new flavor combinations, you can substitute spinach leaves for tarragon leaves.
