Zucchini Roll-Ups and An Easy Dinner

When the zucchini was flourishing, we were eating zucchini every other night, usually grilled. Last week, I opted to fancify our grilled zucchini and served it with dinner

Zucchini Roll-Ups
  • 1 medium zucchini, cut into long strips (about 4 strips per zucchini)
  • salt & pepper
  • olive oil
  • 1 oz goat cheese, room temperature
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh parsley


Season zucchini with olive oil, salt & pepper and grill on medium heat, a few minutes per side. Remove from grill and let cool slightly.

Meanwhile, mix chopped parsley into the goat cheese. Spoon 1/4 of the goat cheese mixture onto the end of each zucchini and roll up.

We enjoyed ours with a quick-fried chicken breast, served on a bed of arugula with a squeeze of lemon and oh yes, some of the early golden cherry tomatoes!
