Rolls with ricotta

Method

1. Preheat grill or oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
2. Cut the zucchini into long slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
4. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the zucchini slices and let sit for 10 minutes to allow the spices to absorb.
5. Drain any liquid that has accumulated from the zucchini slices.
6. If grilling, place the zucchini slices on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until tender and lightly charred. If baking, spread the zucchini slices out on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
7. In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese and chopped parsley.
8. Once the zucchini slices have cooled, spread a spoonful of the ricotta mixture onto each slice.
9. Roll up the zucchini slices tightly, securing them with a toothpick if necessary.
10. Serve the zucchini roll-ups as an appetizer or side dish, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!
