Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 1/2 cups ricotta
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, divided in half
• 2 tsp dried basil
• 1 medium egg
• 4 tbsp butter
• 2 medium cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped

Instructions

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Coat casserole dish with non-stick spray. Prepare the zucchini rolls by slicing each medium zucchini from end to end using a wide vegetable peeler. You will need 20 slices to fill a small casserole dish.

4. Ladle a third of the sauce into the bottom of the casserole dish.
5. Cut the tip of the piping bag or plastic bag.  Squeeze a strip of filling onto each of the zucchini noodle strips.
6. Roll each strip gently, being careful not to squeeze the filling out.
7. Place each zucchini roll into the casserole dish spiral side down into the sauce.
8. Stir the sundried tomatoes into the remaining sauce. Spoon the sauce over the rolls.
