ZUCCHINI ROLL-UPS
We love lasagna, but these zucchini roll-ups are a little healthier and a lot quicker! Using zucchini "pasta" also makes the dish gluten- and grain-free. To make zucchini strips, use a box grater or mandoline to get even slices. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Steps:
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
- Brush both sides of the zucchini slices with olive oil and place them on the grill. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until very soft but not falling apart, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the slices to paper towels to absorb the excess moisture. Let them cool completely.
- Spread about 2 teaspoons of the herbed cheese onto each of the zucchini slices. Place a basil leaf on top. Starting at one end, roll each zucchini slice up until it's a nice neat roll.
- Serve the roll-ups on a platter garnished with small basil leaves. These can be assembled and chilled up to 3 hours before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Trim the ends off of the zucchini and slice lengthwise on a mandoline to about 1/8-inch thick. Reserve the 16 largest interior slices for this dish and save the rest for another use.
- Fill a medium ovenproof skillet with lightly salted water and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add half of the zucchini slices and cook until just pliable, about 45 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel-lined platter to dry. Repeat with the remaining zucchini slices.
- Stir the ricotta, basil, oregano, lemon zest and 3/4 cup mozzarella together in a bowl with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Beat the egg well in another bowl, then add 1 tablespoon egg to the ricotta mixture and stir to incorporate. (Discard the remaining egg.)
- Pour the water out from the skillet and add the marinara. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat.
- While the sauce warms, lay the dry zucchini slices out on a work surface. Spoon a scant tablespoon of the ricotta filling on one end of a zucchini slice, then gently roll the zucchini up. Arrange in the skillet seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining zucchini slices and ricotta filling.
- Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and bake until the center is bubbling and the cheese is golden in spots, 20 to 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Lay zucchini slices flat in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each side with 1/4 teaspoon salt; let stand 15 minutes. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Italian sausage and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the sausage as it cooks; drain excess fat. In a medium bowl, combine sausage, ricotta, Parmesan, egg, basil and garlic; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spread 1 cup marinara sauce sauce onto the bottom of a 1o-inch oven-proof skillet; set aside. Spread 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture evenly along each zucchini slice; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon mozzarella cheese. Roll up and place in the prepared skillet; repeat with remaining zucchini slices and filling. Top with remaining 1/2 cup marinara sauce and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Place into oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lasagna rolls are heated through and the cheese is beginning to brown. Serve immediately.
