Zucchini Roll-Ups image

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

These were a great way to use up some extra zucchini. I'll definitely be making them again.

These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

These were okay. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different cheese.

The zucchini was a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll slice it thinner next time.

I've made these zucchini roll-ups several times now and they're always a hit. They're a great way to use up summer zucchini.

These were easy to make and turned out great! I used a mandoline to slice the zucchini and it worked perfectly.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but these roll-ups were delicious! The cheese and herbs really balanced out the flavor of the zucchini.
