Oggi si mangia: Rotolini di zucchine e ricotta Italian food is so much more than stereotyped pasta and pizza. Today I’m sharing zucchini rolls filled with ricotta and cooked in tomato sauce. A bit like cannelloni but without pasta.. Today I cooked them in a pan but you could also use the oven. I used 2 large zucchini’s to fill a large pan. Aprox 250g ricotta, 1 egg, parmigiano, salt, peppar, olive oil. Have you tried them? Let me know if you like them if you prepare them. Un bacio Lina♥️.
