ZUCCHINI & CHEESE ROULADES

Zucchini & Cheese Roulades image

My husband enjoys this recipe so much that he even helps me roll up the roulades! You can change the filling any way you like-I have used feta instead of Parmesan, or sun-dried tomatoes in the place of the olives. -April McKinney, Murfreesboro, Tennessee
