ZUCCHINI ROLL-UPS



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

Time 40m

Yield 20 servings

About 3/4 cup herbed cream cheese, such as Rondele or Alouette
20 fresh basil leaves, plus extra for garnish
