1cupchopped cherry tomatoes

1cuppart-skim ricotta cheese

3tablespoonsgrated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Position racks in middle and upper thirds of oven; preheat to 425°F. Coat 2 large rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray.

Slice zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Discard any small or misshapen pieces. You should have about 16 strips. Place on the prepared baking sheets. Lightly coat with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.

Combine ricotta, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and garlic in a medium bowl. Spread a generous 1 tablespoon of the ricotta mixture on each zucchini slice. Roll up the slices and place them in the baking dish, seam-side down. Bake until hot and bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with basil before serving.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
