Vegan Zucchini Ricotta Roll-Ups
Ingredients
- 2-3 zucchini
- 32 ounces marinara sauce
- 1 (14 ounces) container firm tofu
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Fresh basil to garnish
Preparation
Remove tofu from package and wrap tofu block in 2 paper towels. Squeeze for 10 seconds then break apart tofu into your food processor. To the food processor add salt, lemon juice, nutritional yeast and garlic powder. Pulse 6-10 times until you reach the consistency of ricotta cheese. Taste and adjust salt and seasonings as needed.
Preheat oven to 400F. Slice zucchini lengthwise into 1⁄8” thick strips, using a vegetable peeler.
Spread marinara sauce onto the bottom of an oven-proof skillet and set aside.
Spread 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture evenly along each zucchini slice. Roll up and place in the prepared skillet, repeating with remaining zucchini slices and filling.
Place into oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lasagna rolls are heated through and the cheese is beginning to brown.
Serve immediately. Garnish with ground pepper and fresh basil.
