Pizza Roll-Ups

Need an impressive but easy appetizer? These veggie roll-ups contain all your favorite pizza flavors inside of broiled or grilled zucchini. Since they can be served at room temperature, you can make a big batch before your party. Want a spicy version? Sprinkle with red pepper flakes before rolling.

Directions

1. Preheat broiler or grill.
2. Brush each zucchini slice lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil or grill until softened, about 2 minutes per side. Let cool slightly.
3. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on half of one side of zucchini. Sprinkle with olive, sun-dried tomato, and red pepper flakes, if using. Roll up each slice and secure with a toothpick if necessary.
