Grilled Zucchini Rolls with Herbs and Cheese
By á-81356
Very clever idea, and incorporates a lot of flavors I enjoy. I made this as a side dish to go with our grilled chicken. I would for sure make again as a side or as an appetizer for a party.
Ingredients
- 3 zucchini (about 1/2 pound each), sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- Pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 ounces reduced-fat soft goat's cheese
- 1 tablespoon freshly minced parsley leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1/3 cup basil leaves

Preparation
Step 1
Discard the outermost slices of zucchini and brush the rest of the slices with the oil on both sides. Season with salt and pepper. Place on a preheated grill or grill pan for about 4 minutes on each side, or until tender.
In a small bowl combine the goat cheese, parsley leaves and lemon juice, mashing with a fork.
Put 1/2 teaspoon of the cheese mixture about 1/2-inch from the end of a zucchini slice. Top with a few spinach leaves and 1 small, or half of a large basil leaf. Roll up and place seam side down on a platter. Repeat with the rest of the zucchini slices.
