These zucchini roll-ups were a delightful appetizer! The pesto and goat cheese filling was creamy and flavorful, and the zucchini held up well without getting soggy. I will definitely be making these again for future parties.

Not a fan. The pesto was bland and the goat cheese was too overpowering. I won't be making these again.

I thought these roll-ups were just okay. The pesto was a bit too oily for my taste, and the zucchini was a little undercooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Not bad, but not amazing either. The pesto was a bit bland, and the zucchini was a little too soft for my liking. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
