Grilled Zucchini Rollatini

Prepare and cook the zucchini

1. Use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to cut the zucchini into ¼" slices. Brush with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides, then set aside.
2. Heat up the grill (or a grill pan) over medium-high heat.
3. Place the seasoned zucchini onto the grates, cooking until grill marks appear on the zucchini. Flip, then cook the other side.
4. The zucchini is done whenever it is soft (but not falling apart.) Remove from the grill, place on a plate, and let come to room temperature.

Make the ricotta filling

1. While the zucchini cools, mix up the ricotta filling.
2. In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, chopped tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper.
3. Stir until well-combined, then set aside.

Prepare the rollatini

1. When the zucchini has cooled down, lie them out in a row on a flat surface.
2. Dollop a little of the ricotta mixture on one end of the zucchini. Using a butter knife, smear the ricotta down the zucchini.
3. Once the ricotta is in place, roll the zucchini into a little roll.
4. Continue until all the zucchini has been prepared.
5. Keep chilled until it's time to eat, then serve!
